“Previous owner exchanged left side catalytic converter (under Audi recall - right side converter not included in recall). Car started vibrating and engine overheated. Catalytic converter found to be clogged internally - same fault as with recalled left side. Cost $1500 to replace not under warranty. Major safety concern due to potentially severe engine damage caused by clogged exhaust on one side.”
