Just went to the dealership to take a look at the broken HFC. The whole entire honey comb of the cat was broken off. It was just moving around freely.

Just went to the dealership to take a look at the broken HFC. The whole entire honey comb of the cat was broken off. It was just moving around freely. The tech at Nissan said "the only reason Nissan decided to replace the motor is because this motor is known for having oil consumption issues." I asked him if he was certain that the cat was the reason the engine failed..He said "it's one of the reasons.." I swear they'll never give you a for sure answer to anything. Should i go the test pipe route, have the hfc replaced (probably the worst idea since permanent viagra), or put the stock cats back on?
