“Poor quality item, only lasted 1 year before internals fell to pieces causing nasty rattle. I would advise getting a second hand oem Mazda, or fork out for a new oem which are much better quality.”

“Very disappointed with this part and service received trying to resolve fitting issues, had to resort to cutting and welding to get to fit as angles all wrong.”

“Very bad choice ... This catalytic converter is not expensive ... but it is no more ... Bought in November 2012, mounted in April 2013, it is now out of use. He has not resisted one year of operation and less than 4000km. Do not buyTrès mauvais choix...Ce pot catalytic n'est pas chère... mais il ne vaut pas plus...Acheté en novembre 2012, monté en avril 2013, il est aujourd'hui hors d'usage.Il n'a pas resisté 1 an de fonctionnement et moins de 4000km.A ne pas acheter”

“Very disappointed with this cat, it is 2 years old and I have done less than 5,000 miles and my car has failed an MOT on the cat. The year before it only JUST passed. This is unacceptable, when I rang to complain last year to MX5 Parts I was told that after sending the reading from the garage that this was acceptable. DON'T purchase this item.”

“Addition to my previous review.After several e-mails with Mx-5parts, my problem is solved and I am happy with their service.The Cat has a much lower price tag now.For this price it probably is a good product.”

“I had a leak from a weld after about 1 months use. Looks like a tiny rust hole.Mx-5parts says I should return it or fix it my self.Returning it will put my car in the garage for weeks. It should not be necessary to book time at a garage to fix new parts.”

“I bought this cat in april 2010. Since then, I drove aprox. 15000 km. Just yesterday my mazda didn\'t pass the dutch equivalent of the MOT. In the opinion of the garagekeeper, the only possible explanation was failure of the cat.I\'m not really content with the lifespan of my particular cat. Viewing the other reviews with one star, I sincerely hope someone from mx5parts could contact me too. RegardsFrankNetherlandsEditors Note: Soory to hear you have had problems with this part. Of course, someone from customer services will be in touch soon to get the matter resolved.”

“Comprato circa 4 anni fa. Ha superato la prima revisione biennale ma non la seconda (dopo 4 anni). Prodotto veramente deludente!Il materiale interno appare in ottime condizioni, non si vede nessun tipo di rottura.Ho rimontato il catalizzatore originale che ha 20 anni e funziona! Purtroppo ha le lamiere esterne che fanno un poco di rumore.Bought about 4 years ago. Has passed the first biennial review (MOT) but not the second (after 4 years). Product that is truly disappointing!The internal material appears in excellent condition, we do not see any type of rupture.I remounted the original catalyst that has 20 years and it works! Unfortunately the external plates that make a little noise.”
