Does Hyundaitech (the coolest tech on earth) know where to
buy a catalytic converter for 2001 accent 1.5L EPA California
approved model? this could be re manufactured or new
the dealer wants $827 for it. The only other ones I
have been able to find are non EPA type, which I assume
do not have O2 sensor port hole or wont pass smog
inspection. Does anyone know where to get a better price?

sorry, i should have mentioned the part number is
28510-22660

I'm not familiar with converter sources outside the dealer, but if you have
less than 70,000 miles on your car the converter should still be covered
under the California emissions warranty.

If  HT's suggestion doesnt work, try a junkyard for a low mileage car.....I
wouldnt think that Hyundai changes the sizes of coverters to much so you may
be able to match one up from a differant model.

Here's what I found:
for 2001 model
Hyundai accent 1.5L catalytic convertor (dealer) part no. 28510-22660
$827.00
convertor cylinder head gasket (dealer) part number 28521-22020
   11.87
convertor exaust pipe side gasket (dealer) part number 28751-25000
 10.23

same as above OEM catalytic convertor from "convertor geeks"
part number 654-134
                            308.00
This is the EPA approved California model OBII type, not an aftermarket
type

Available from:

Stop, Shop and Drive
990 Cedar Bridge Avenue-Suite 221
Brick, New Jersey 08723-4157
800-541-9352
775-307-8764 (fax)
e-mail: sales@isaparts.com
talk to Cindy or Chris

But please note: on the heat shield of the catalytic convertor is an
"attribute designator" which will be: AC  AF  DC  H4  II18  B2C
you must check to see which one your's is. (mine was AC)
to insure you are ordering the correct fitting unit, you must specify!

Now with that part found, i will let you know how the repairs turn out.
Thanks for reading and posting, hope this helps future parts hunters.

Now that you know what the # is on yours and you know the # is located on
the converter you can still go to the yunkyard and check it out, you may
save $200 $250 bucks.......
