Anyone know the answer? Is the cat converter one of those things like an O2 sensor - to stay on the game, it needs replacing every 60K, good or bad. Or - Do you just run it until it gives trouble. I definitely believe in preventive maintenance, and I have 12 years on my current cat since new- can't really say mileage. Over 130K, though. The cats are pricey.
