This Exhaust Systems Australia firewall-side manifold catalytic converter is listed to fit the Ford Escape and Mazda Tribute V6 3.0L from 2001 to 2008. The MPN is FORD-ESCAPE-MAZDA-TRIBUTE-V6-3-0L-2001-2005-FIREWALL-SIDE-MANIFOLD-CAT.

What does this part cover?

This is the firewall-side manifold catalytic converter for the Ford Escape and its Mazda Tribute twin on the 3.0L V6, listed across 2001 to 2008. On a transverse V6 each bank has its own manifold and cat; this is the unit on the firewall (rear) side. It combines the manifold and the catalytic converter for that bank into the one assembly.

What's a catalytic converter and what does it do?

A catalytic converter is the emissions device in the exhaust that converts the engine's harmful gases into less harmful ones before they leave the tailpipe. It's the part a roadworthy and emissions check looks for. Cats wear out or block over time, and on a V-configuration engine the firewall-side unit is often the harder one to reach, which is why it's catalogued separately from the front bank.

Will it suit my Ford Escape or Mazda Tribute?

It's listed to fit the Ford Escape and Mazda Tribute V6 3.0L from 2001 to 2008, on the firewall (rear) side. Treat it as listed to fit rather than guaranteed — confirm your exact year and that you need the firewall-side unit, not the front, with the workshop before ordering.

Is it road legal?

This is a catalytic converter — the emissions part — so fitting one is about keeping the car's emissions hardware in place, not removing it. The right cat for your build and any state requirements should be confirmed with the workshop; emissions compliance is checked against your specific vehicle. Oak Flats Muffler Men supplies and fits these across the Illawarra.
