I have a bad left primary, and found a secondary for cheap $$$. Are the primary and secondary cats on the C32 interchangeable? Thanks!

Nope-thats why the secondary is cheap a$$ 
Primaries are the ones you "need" to have on the car-the seconds are (worthelss) for show.
I swear. Thats all they are for.

Crap. Looks like another hole in the pocket is coming.
62K. I have been experiencing a "clatter" or metallic rattle noise from the left underside of the engine. I happens mainly at idle. I thought it was heat shielding or something hitting the exhaust pipe, but the mechanic just told me that it is the driver-side primary and that some of the honeycomb has broken off and is rattling around.

If it's anything like the Non-AMG cars- what most people talk about as being secondary "cats", are actually small bullet mufflers/resonators.

ExploreResonators don't have honeycombs. You should be able to have it done under warranty I think it's 8 years 80k miles.
