Volkswagen Vento Catalytic Converter (1991-1998)

The Volkswagen Vento (generation 1H2, approximately 1991-1998) uses catalytic converters adapted to petrol and diesel engines with specific product references according to engine code, displacement, and European emission standards. Models include:

• Petrol 1.6L engines (codes AEK, AFT, AKS, ABU) Euro 2 compliant
• Petrol 1.8i engine (code AAM) produced 1991-1995
• Diesel 1.9 TD engine (1L9 code)
• Generic catalytic converters suited for Vento 1H2 from 1991 to 2000

Each catalytic converter is designed to meet the European emission level required for the model, with quality and performance standards to ensure proper exhaust gas treatment.

The 1.6L petrol catalytic converters for Volkswagen Vento have the following characteristics:

• Engine codes: AEK, AFT, AKS, ABU
• Euro 2 emission standard approved (E-Mark certified)
• 8-valve petrol engine, 1.6L displacement
• Includes mounting kits and potential partial buy-back for old converters

This product ensures the vehicle meets emission regulations and operates efficiently with minimal environmental impact.

Krosfou catalytic converters for Volkswagen Vento come with a 3-year warranty, limited to a maximum usage of 100,000 kilometers. The warranty period starts from the date the product is received by the customer.

These converters are manufactured with high-quality stainless steel and advanced monolith technology, certified by leading European automotive certification authorities.

When replacing a catalytic converter, it is important to select the correct product matching your Vento’s engine code and emission level. Factors to consider include:

• Exact vehicle model and engine displacement (i.e., 1.6 petrol, 1.8i petrol, or 1.9 TD diesel)
• European level emission certification compliance (usually Euro 2 for older Vento models)
• Compatibility with vehicle sensors and exhaust system
• Availability of mounting kits or installation accessories

Choosing a properly matched converter will ensure effective exhaust emission reduction, optimal engine performance, and adherence to environmental regulations.

Yes, used catalytic converters from Volkswagen Vento can have value, especially due to their precious metal content that enables recycling. However, the exact value depends on the condition and type of converter.

• Value depends on metals like platinum, palladium, and rhodium inside the converter
• Values fluctuate with market prices and converter condition
• Proper recycling supports environmental sustainability

If considering selling a used catalytic converter, it is advisable to consult specialized services that evaluate and handle catalytic converter scrap responsibly.

Volkswagen Vento petrol and diesel engines require catalytic converters designed specifically for their emission types and exhaust characteristics. Key differences include:

• Petrol catalytic converters focus on reducing hydrocarbons, carbon monoxide, and nitrogen oxides efficiently.
• Diesel catalytic converters often include particulate filters or are combined with Diesel Particulate Filters (DPF) to reduce soot particles in addition to gases.
• Diesel converters tend to be heavier and structurally different to withstand different exhaust conditions.

Ensuring the correct type is installed is critical for maintaining vehicle performance and meeting legal emission standards.

To confirm compatibility, use the following details to select the correct catalytic converter:

• Vehicle identification number (VIN)
• Engine code and displacement (e.g., AEK 1.6L petrol, AAM 1.8i petrol, 1L9 1.9 TD diesel)
• Vehicle production year and emission standard (mainly Euro 2 for these models)

Manufacturers and suppliers usually provide reference guides or search tools by engine or VIN to find the exact fitment required for your Vento.

Certified high-quality catalytic converters for Volkswagen Vento come with a 3-year warranty covering up to 100,000 km usage, ensuring long-term reliability.
