Kia sorento catalytic converter problem (Kia)

[Administrator]

Excuse me for writing in english but my dutch is very limited as i havent been to netherlands for too long.I own a kia sorento as well 2003 (2.4l benzene), the check engine light (orange) is constantly on for a month now. I went to a garage and they told me that according to the reading they performed was the lamba sensor. After i changed it, the engine light continued to be on. They performed a second reading and they found that my both catalysers had a problem. They told me that they physically inspected the catalysers and they were both broken.Now after having paid already ~600 euros for inspection etc... they tell me that the new katalysators + the work would cost me at about 2500 euros! and till then i cant get a new APK. ( i was not given on paper my emissions or the code for the check engine light)I live in the netehrlands for about 10 months and i am planning to leave in about 8 months. For tax purposes i cant get the car with me so i plan to sell it thus 2500 euros is a large amount of money for me. Could maybe someone suggest some no name brand for catalyser or used car parts. I have found some sites which offer 3 years guarantee but availability for kia sorento is limited.My true apologies for posting in english as my dutch is at very basic level. any help would be absolutely appreciated.
