The wire mesh to hold catalytic carrier inside the catalytic converter is made of improper material, and therefore, sustained high speed driving can cause oxidation and deterioration of the wire mesh by exhaust gas heat, and this may lead to interference of the catalytic carrier and the case causing abnormal noise. If the vehicle continues to be driven with this problem, wear and loss of the catalytic carrier may occur, in which case the vehicle will probably exceed the exhaust emissions standards.
