Detailed Description

Part number 16889 is a fitment-based replacement for drivers searching for a catalytic converter manifold for Hyundai Santa Fe Sport or Kia Sorento exhaust repair, especially when the original manifold converter has failed or the exhaust/emissions system needs restoration.

This part cross-references AP Exhaust 641577 for the same application.

What It Helps Address

• Check engine light concerns related to catalytic converter efficiency
• Exhaust leaks at the manifold-to-pipe connection
• Failed or restricted catalytic converter performance
• Emissions test failures on EPA-equipped vehicles
• Cracked or damaged exhaust manifold converter assemblies

Installation Notes and Tips

For 2014-2015 Hyundai Santa Fe Sport and 2014-2015 Kia Sorento applications, an exhaust gasket is recommended. Additional part 31337 is needed to complete installation. Verify the vehicle’s emission configuration before ordering, since these applications are not legal for sale or use in California and other CARB-compliant states; New York and Maine restrictions apply to EPA Federal Emission equipped vehicles only. Confirm flange alignment and exhaust routing before installation.

Quality Assurance

Walker EPA 16889 is built to comply with EPA emissions requirements and is intended for import and domestic OBDII vehicles. Always confirm fitment by year, make, model, and emission type before installation.
