Cicero posted:So are there only specific car models that are being targeted by catalytic converter thieves? There are definitely more targeted vehicles due to ease of removal and higher prices for selling the cats (like the Prius). Trucks are also targeted because it's easy to get under them (also the Honda Element, apparently). You can kind of get a sense based on the product lines of catalytic converter guards: https://getcatsecurity.com/ https://catshield.com/ https://catclamp.com/shop/#model-specific-maxx-kits-for-commonly-targeted-medium-duty-trucks There are others coming to market seemingly daily. EricTheCarGuy installed one recently and that's when I first heard of it being a thing. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Fbce8m2KykU https://www.nerdwallet.com/article/loans/auto-loans/5-ways-to-foil-catalytic-converter-thieves

Omerta posted:I cursed myself by posting. My car has a leak somewhere and a bunch of water dumped into the passenger side area after a storm. If I can’t get it patched up cheap, guess I’m going car shopping sooner than expected. That's often clogged sunroof drains, I've had to clean them out on two cars. You can usually find a youtube video or guide on it for your car, but a mechanic will often be able to just blast it out with compressed air or something.
