With help from this video, I finished replacing the front flex pipe catalytic converter. My car sounds so much better and feels a little bit more powerful than before. This mechanic makes it look easy to replace but I found it pretty tough and time consuming to do because these bolts are so damaged and a complete pain in the @$$ to remove especially when the car is on jack stands with little room for me. I cut 3 bolts and drilled out 3 holes. The heating didn't really work for me. I drilled 3 holes and 1 hole had an awkward tough angle for my drill but I eventually got it off. I used a Milwaukee compact hacksaw for 1 stud (w/ spring) because my power tools were too large and I couldn't get a good angle. The reciprocating saw was great for me and preferred it over my Dewalt angle grinder. At the end of the day, I finished the job but I think this job was definitely tougher than I expected due to little room with the jack stands, seized damaged bolts and some awkward angles. Very satisfying when I finished it all.
Bflo23 I hope the labour of all that hard work paid off. Did you bought your own parts?

Simply, easy. Thank you for the tutorial.
This is a great video. Unfortunately my bolts were too rusted for me do anything, but at least I can see what needs to be done before bringing it in.
Exactly what I was looking for. Thanks! You would have my business if you were near me.
Fellas thanks alot for posting this idea and all the others that you've done before. You are my hero!
I know next to nothing about cars, but my flex pipe is almost completely detached. 2004 Nissan Altima. Is this the part I will need?
+Brooke Champion We wouldn't be able to diagnose an issue like that here, you may want to have a local mechanic take a look at it. Thanks for checking us out! 1aau.to/m/Shop-1AAuto-c
Take a deep socket that is smaller than the nut size it it supposed to be (if it’s supposed to be a 14mm then try a 13mm or 12mm deep socket) you will have to hammer it on so watch your fingers 😊
Hammer it down until it’s all the way on *important keep pressure on it as you turn so it doesn’t slip off.
When you get the nut off save for half a turn (when it’s almost all the way off) you can jerk the socket off and use your fingers to take it off the rest of the way, if not then you have to use a screwdriver to pop the nut out of your socket or just throw it hard on the concrete and sometimes that works.
Watch a video if you need to but I promise this can work if you commit. Once you get the socket on the nut do not take it off until you can take the nut off. If you don’t keep pressure on the socket as you turn it can slip off and it will strip the nut worse and you may not get a second chance if it is too damaged. Good luck 🍀 ❤
Long story short there is good metal under the rust. Hit a socket on there with a hammer. Probably wanna get new bolts afterwards even if you get the old ones off without cutting them
I might be getting a 06 Altima needs this done 😵 doesn't look too bad not mech and no torch so you know what that means
Would this also work for the 3.5 version?
Hey 1a auto, brakes plus says my car a 2016 Nissan altima needs a new catalytic converter it's got a p0420 code but they're also telling me that they recommend getting two new oxygen sensors as well as a tune up with the new converter. Is this true or are they trying to pull a fast one on me???
A muffler shop try to charge me 500 dls for a full pipe .till I saw this video a thight the bolts and it work thanks alot
Cristobal Soto No problem. Thank you for watching. 1aauto.com 866-403-3393

Can you provide a link for the two nuts and bolts you used at about the 5 minute mark?
An you use any torch? Or does it need to be the specific ones in the bideo

We have a Nissan Rogue that starts up high idle and then lowers after like 2 seconds. The other day we were driving and the car lost acceleration in the middle of the highway. Pressing the gas only made it worse, it felt like the car was going to come to a complete stop. I was wondering if you had any ideas what this could be? No check engine light comes on. Every time we turn the engine on it starts really high and lowers back down after about 1-2 seconds. Any help is appreciated thanks.
Arturo Garza check fuel pump/ spark plugs/ front air filter is clean. You need air/spark/fuel. Your not getting something
Look like my rear gasket was removed. Is it possible to add a extension and weld together
Did you have to do a Relearn afterwards?
Does the Nissan Altima coupe 2.5s 2013 brings that or just the one infront
A Nissan dealership just charged my $850 for a flex pipe and labour for my car! How crazy is that?!!?!
as crazy as you taking your car to a stealership to get fixed
should of went to one of those side shop.
Do you have Y pipes for a 2007 Ford crown Victoria police interceptor with the catylic convertor on the pipe ?
Where do you plug the bottom o2 sensor?
How do you determine which catalytic converter is the problem? I was prepared to replace the upper manifold section on my 2006 Nissan Altima S 2.5L and now seen there are two on this model.
I need to know the same thing

Raul Pelayo shut up.
Where the sensor goes on the new flex pipe/ catalytic converter, what did you use to plug it??
+josh vandall Thank you for watching. There are plugs available at local retailers which may be used to plug the hole. 1aauto.com
How do you tell if this needs to be changed ?
I have a couple of questions;
1 - Why is the flex pipe needed? My 98 Nissan Maxima had one of these before it rusted completely away It was actually a braided pipe. Can I replace it with a plain piece of pipe? No other vehicle I have ever owned has had one of these flex pipes.
I need one for a 2010 altima s . 2.5l can you get it in stock?
I did the same procedure except once i finished everything it started smoking where the donut gasket is any ideas why this might happen ??
chris Perez you didn’t put it right it’s leaking exhaust
How do You know if Your Flex Pipe Catalytic converter is Failing? My Nissan Altima 2003 P0420 Code still Popped up after Replaced The exhaust manifold catalytic converter.
+andy soccerboy Thank you for checking us out. The P0420 code is a generic code which could indicate a oxygen sensor failure or catalytic converter. It is in most cases tough to identify the reason for this code without a special scanner to obtain the exact specifications to determine what part is faulty and throwing the system out of alignment. 1aauto.com
andy soccerboy any update?
hello little late to the comment party but was wondering if the pipe for sale in the link can be used for an 02 sentra?
+Eric Macavoy This part only fits on the Altima, unfortunately! Any other viewers interested in purchasing this part please click the link: www.1aauto.com/1A/direct-fit-catalytic-converter/Nissan/Altima/1ACCD00255?UA-cam&CTA+Comment&T6NodXCYs1Q
If the catalytic converter under this car becomes clogged would the engine power be reduced? As into Slow acceleration? I just replaced the pre cat and now I have to order this one. car drives fine. its quiet just has slow acceleration.
+LifeHacks4All It may result in a loss of power. Hope this helps you out. 1aauto.com
1A Auto Parts thank you!
1A Auto Parts I replaced this part on my Altima and it worked flawless. Car even spin the tires lol.. Power has been restored😇😇😇
+LifeHacks4All Thank you for your order. If you would like to leave us a review on Google it would be greatly appreciated. Here is a link to our reviews section. Have a great day! goo.gl/i5JFNY
Where can I get a Bracket like the one where they are installing the little tube that extends out of the catalytic convert at 3:35 ?
+Rony Aguilar Thanks for watching! If you are referring to the hanger bracket then that is something that will need to be fabricated. It is not something that can be purchased new. 1aauto.com
Can you change the exhaust system on a Subaru Outback without replacing the catalytic converter?
+Richard Decker Thanks for watching! You will typically have to replace the rear converters if you are replacing the exhaust. 1aauto.com
Can you send me a link on to the catalytic converter for a 2002 Nissan altima 2.5 v4 thanks ..
I love them no. lie
i need to do this for my car. At 4:27, the shiny nut sticking out of the cat pipe...is that an 02 Sensor? if so, what kind? thank you
+David Orellana That is not an O2 sensor, it is a plug. A lot of times aftermarket companies build parts to fit multiple applications, so they probably have an additional hole for an O2 sensor if needed. You can simply plug them if you do not have an O2 sensor at that location. The pipe will typically come with the plug, so you do not need to purchase additional parts! www.1aauto.com/1A/direct-fit-catalytic-converter/Nissan/Altima/1ACCD00255?UA-cam&CTA+Comment&T6NodXCYs1Q
David Orellana downstream is past the cat. Upstream is before cat i have 2up 2 down
My Sentra has been throwing P0455 for a year and the mechanic just told me that the flex pipe is cracked. (Does that make sense?) When he says that, does it mean the whole piece that is replaced here or only flex region? How many labor hours are expected to replace do the exactly same job in this video?
The cracked pipe it probably throwing the emissions off. We carry the flex pipe shown in this video on our website. Here's a link to them www.1aauto.com/1A/direct-fit-catalytic-converter/Nissan/Altima/1ACCD00255?VideoReply&VideoReply&ATony

I went to Pick-N-Pull somehow they cut the catalytic converter out I think it's their making money on it that might be dishonest for the consumers but I have a Nissan 96 GLE in the GXE catalytic converter is way different but they have the same parts on the same car I was wondering with a GXE fit on a 1.6 l Nissan Sentra GLE
how much is this part? I need one for altima 2006 2.5

am i supposed to remove the bolt where the o2 censor goes or do i leave it plugged ?
Depends on the car or truck you have. If it hadn't before then put it backlike you found it. Otherwise rock and roll, brother
I have a 2004 Volkswagen Passat and was charged $150 to replace my flex pipe.
