Don't know yet. If they have to order new cats, that will probably take a few days. If that's the case I may pick up the car tonight so I can at least have it for the weekend.

Sounds good.

Thank you Alex, believe me I plan on driving it.

Just got word from the dealer. Still not passing with the stock center muffler back on (no surprise). They are going to test the fuel tomorrow, and if that doesn't make a difference they are ordering new cats. But the bumper is off so I probably can't pick it up until the repair is complete, which means most likely mid next week.

Sounds like the cats. My uncle had the same issue with his cgt.

That's my feeling too. A couple of other guys on RL had the same issue as well, and it turned out to be the cats. The dealer just has to go through all the steps first.

I recently had to replace the cats on my aftermarket exhaust because the "precious metals" in them had worn out causing the cats to fail. Sounds like that's what happened to yours as well, Ara.

It just seems a little early for the stock cats to fail. Oh well, at least it's under warranty.

Thank you.

Update, the dealer is ordering new cats, but one is coming from the Northeast, so I'm looking at late next week before I have it back.

Bummer! I would ask them to put it back together, and drive that shit! I would have 0 patience...
