If you’re a proud owner of an Acura TL model from 1999 to 2003, you understand the importance of maintaining your vehicle’s performance while meeting emissions standards. An essential component in achieving this is the catalytic converter. This guide introduces you to the Acura TL catalytic converter, specifically designed for all TL models from 1999 to 2003 with a mid-bed O2 sensor location.

Special Note on O2 Sensor Location

It’s important to check your Acura TL’s O2 sensor location. Most models have a mid-bed O2 sensor, but some 1999 models may have a rear O2 sensor position. Verify your specific model to ensure compatibility.
 

Installation Guide

For those considering installing the Acura TL catalytic converter, here’s a step-by-step guide to help you get started:

  1. Prepare Your Vehicle: Prioritize safety by ensuring your Acura TL is securely elevated and properly supported.
