The average
Pontiac G5
catalytic converter replacement cost is between $1,700 and $1,800.
Pontiac
repairs tend to cost slightly higher than repairs on other models. Of the overall fee, expect to pay about $100 toward labor and about $1,700 toward parts. It should take a skilled mechanic about an hour to perform this repair, barring complications.
The Pontiac G5 ceased production in 2009, so you may want to carefully consider whether it’s worth the investment to fix the catalytic converter. We recommend calling around to get a few estimates from several garages. Either way, you can drive on a bad catalytic converter for a short time. But the
check engine light
should be taken very seriously, so try to take care of this repair ASAP.
