Question for Catalytic Convertor
The catalytic convertor in my 2000 ML55 is rattling.
It looks like the honey comb inside is broken loose.
Does anyone had any luck finding one besides the dealer?
Thanks
Barry

Should be covered under warranty if under 85K miles if not maybe SOL, check though because it might be based on years versus mileage on vehicle.

Check the exhaust junction after the engine, you might have a cracked seam where the support is tacked on to the exhaust. My pop's ML had that problem, but it was a 320 not ML55.

I always thought that sulfur smell comes from a rich condition.
It would make sense that you get the sulfur smell under heavy acceleration because you are dumping lots of fuel to the combustion chamber when accelerating aspecially when climbing a hill with full throtle.
