How much does it cost to replace a catalytic converter?

Over a grand

well you are in CA.only certain converters can be used in CA.you have different emissions standards than we have in NC.your converter is $100.00 more in CA than it is in NC FOR THE SAME EXACT PART NUMBER AT THE SAME EXACT PARTS HOUSE.GOOD GRACIOUS OF LIFE||||||||im sure the labor is higher to.so the first person that answered this is probably right on the price.good luck.maybe you should move to SC,they dont have emissions test there,just a thought,and just kidding,but really SC has no emissions testing.

On my 2001 Kia, its going to cost me about $300 at a mechanic/ Have to get mine fixed too
