Catalytic Converter Deactivation in BMW
The catalytic converter is one of the key components of the exhaust control system. It helps reduce harmful emissions, but over time, it can become clogged or fail, leading to power issues, increased fuel consumption, and error codes on the dashboard.
Main Reasons for Catalytic Converter Deactivation:● Error codes after installing a "straight pipe" or exhaust system without a catalytic converter● Clogging or breaking of the ceramic core● Reduced torque, jerky acceleration● Increased fuel consumption● Rattling or strange noises in the exhaust area● Expensive repairs or replacement of the catalytic converter● Catalyst fragments entering the engine, potentially damaging cylinder walls
What We Offer:● Software deactivation of the catalytic converter (including secondary oxygen/lambda sensors)● Error code removal and proper DME unit adaptation● No need for "cheaters" — fully integrated through firmware
Results:● No error codes on the dashboard● Restored power and improved throttle response● Stable engine performance without hesitation● Lower exhaust temperatures (reduced load on the turbocharger)
