If you have a car, you probably already know that it has an important part – a neutralizer. Its value is that it helps clean the exhaust from harmful substances, turning it into a safe one. For example, without it, your car emits toxic substances into the atmosphere – carbon monoxide, hydrocarbons and nitrogen oxide. These emissions are harmful to our health and nature, so each car must be equipped with a working converter. It converts the above-described substances into carbon dioxide, water and nitrogen.
The greatest value is in platinum, palladium and rhodium. These are the valuable metals that are engaged in the separation of hydrocarbons and the combustion of chemicals. Each filter has a coating of these metals and that is why the cost of the spare part is quite high.
But over time, many people face the problem of replacing filters, but do not know what to do with obsolete components. On the Autocatalystmarket platform, you can easily sell your old filter and return part of the funds that will help cover the cost of a new part. Here you will find BMW scrap catalytic converter prices and pictures and other brands of cars.
Let’s consider what else affects the cost
Appearance
The more carefully and gently you drive, the better your neutralizer will be. Impacts, driving into potholes, scraping the bottom, deep puddles will negatively affect the appearance, and as a result, the price of the part.
Wear level
The price will depend on wear. This is negatively affected by:
- Poor quality fuel. Refuel your car only with proven fuel, do not save on this, because in the end you will have to pay for expensive repairs.
- High mileage. Each neutralizer has its own oriented mileage, after which it ceases to perform its functions normally. This is normal for all spare parts and equipment in general. Different cars will have different mileage for the component. Find out more in our article.
- Flooding. Avoid deep puddles, driving into bodies of water.
- Impacts. Drive carefully and not abruptly, if possible avoid potholes, close parking to curbs and off-road.
Material
Car neutralizers are made of ceramics or metal. It depends on the manufacturer, country and brand of car. The average option contains 3-7 g of platinum. Ceramic ones have a larger coating and are more expensive (prices can reach up to $ 3,300 per unit).
For metal ones, you can get up to $ 400 per unit if you use the services of our company, and in general they are cheaper compared to ceramic ones. The cheapest particulate filters (up to $ 150 per unit).
Country of origin
The amount depends on the manufacturer and model. The higher the class of your car, the more expensive it’s neutralizer will be. For example, Ford F250, Dodge Ram 2500 contain more platinum, and this accordingly greatly increases their cost on the market. Also, European cars contain more platinoids compared to Chinese ones, so the price will be accordingly higher.
