WHen your cats are bad it sounds like a valve knocking when you slightly push the gas and the engine is decelerating.. ITs pretty loud after a while. I though I had thrown a rod or something.
I only heard the noise and took it in. My Dealer decided that they should change them both. I'm glad they did. I'd advise you to do the same. There is no point in replacing on side and leaving the other side when It will fail soon anyway.
