Looking for an OEM catalytic converter for 1999 1.9 (140bhp) and sensors. Cheers!
 
Good luck. Had to replace mine with OEM a couple of years ago to pass the MOT; over £1K:thumbsup:

Ouch.... That's why I thought I'd see if someone had a car they were breaking - OEM part is now £1,250!
 
For what it's worth, I tried 2 reasonable quality after market cats (about £3/400 each) and neither worked sufficiently well to pass a MOT emissions test. Received refunds and then bought a new OEM cat which sailed through. Might save someone some pain; but not in the wallet!:(

Ouch... but I think it's probably the right course of action :(
 
BMW also allow almost as much as the cost of an aftermarket cat in part exchange against a new one. That says a lot IMO.
 
I'm after one after an MOT failure and the cat's definitely the problem due to a cheap aftermarket one failing so could be worth a go if you wanted to offload one!
