How much does an OEM Cadillac STS catalytic converter cost?

I need a new Cadillac STS catalytic converter, but the prices vary quite a bit. How much is an OEM model, and do I really need one?

You’re right: prices for
Cadillac STS
catalytic converters are all over the place. For example, an OEM model will cost you around $760, while a generic model might cost as little as $209.
I’m sure you don’t want to spend an arm and a leg on auto repair, but it does make sense to skimp in this instance.

) OEM catalytic converters are better for several reasons, including the fact that they’re factory-fitted. That means they’re designed to perfectly fit onto your car, while a generic version would have to be welded on. In addition, the more expensive models are made with better materials that will perform better and last longer.
While you handle your car’s routine maintenance, why not take a little time to update your

as well? Reviewing your policy once a year is a quick and easy way to save money.
