Has anyone had the exhaust TSB performed?

Hi all,

I was just wondering if anyone has had the TSB for the exhaust done on their truck? Everyone was always telling me my truck has gas (sulfur odor) since it was new and I always thought it was someone else around me. Well finally took my truck in today and found out there was a TSB for it. I didn't even know about it and I usually keep up to date on the TSBs on this site (which it is on here). Just wondering if anyone else has had it done and if so did it solve the problem? My dealer said they have to order the parts so it didn't actually get fixed today...

I'm getting the TRD exhaust anyways so I don't think it will effect me. If you want to know the part number it is PT910-89061.

They replace the catalytic converters.

Thanks. I'm pretty happy with my Flowmaster, I just want my truck to stop farting! Cutting the silent but deadly ones!

Hehe!

You gutted your front cats? Should just have had a test pipe made.

only if it was that easy, take a good look under the truck. It wont happen and most shops wont even toutch it.

Don't they e-test where you live? If I did that my truck would be pulled off the road.

Yea same here. I think the emissions test is only every 2 years here...I think.

Blang Kang - Yes they replace the cats, at least that's what they are telling me. I had to actually complain about the smell for them to do it though...
