E39 528i Catalytic Converter

[yoman1979]

Hi Guys !
I have a 1997 e39 528i, and am looking for a catalytic converter set for my E39 (preferably decent condition 2nd or 3rd hand one). Been trying to source one in Malaysia for quite some time now, but to no avail.
Decatting is not an option for me as I have to pass emissions tests in Singapore

Thanks in advance for your advice on where to get it

Cheers!

Quite a number of shop chops in KL & PJ do have cat converter. I replaced mine (e39 m54) 1 year ago and about RM1.2k for a pair.

Thanks Herbert, mines the M52 version M52B28 version.
I'll call a couple of chop shops n see if they have..apparently hard to find..my jb mechanics cannot source even.
Fuel consumption is a la ferrari . .haha

Cheers,

Thanks beemerback, I'll call and check.
Does anyone know if the catalytic converter for M52B20 can be interchanged with the cat for M52B28 without modification? Both are single vanos 1997 year.
Cheers
