A catalytic converter replacement for a 2010 Honda Crosstour typically costs from a few hundred dollars for aftermarket parts to several thousand dollars for OEM units, with labor pushing totals higher depending on engine configuration and how many converters must be replaced.
The Crosstour lineup for that year offered two engine choices: a 2.4-liter inline-4 engine (usually one catalytic converter) and a 3.5-liter V6 engine (typically two catalytic converters). Prices vary by whether you choose aftermarket or Honda-original parts, your location, and whether nearby components such as oxygen sensors or exhaust clamps must be replaced during the job.
Pricing by engine configuration
Prices below reflect common market ranges and can vary by supplier, region, and vehicle condition. They refer to parts and typical installed costs (labor) where noted.
2.4L inline-4 engine (one catalytic converter)
- Aftermarket direct-fit catalytic converter: approximately $150–$350 for the part
- OEM Honda catalytic converter: approximately $500–$900 for the part
- Installed price range (parts + labor): aftermarket roughly $300–$1,000; OEM roughly $850–$1,200
For the 2.4L Crosstour, you can expect installed costs to run in the low-to-mid three-figure range if you opt for aftermarket parts, with OEM replacements pushing toward the higher end.
3.5L V6 engine (two catalytic converters)
Prices here cover both catalytic converters in this configuration. Labor can vary based on access and vehicle condition.
- Aftermarket catalytic converters (per converter): about $250–$500; two converters total: $500–$1,000 for parts
- OEM Honda catalytic converters (per converter): about $900–$1,400; two converters total: $1,800–$2,800 for parts
- Installed price range (two converters, parts + labor): aftermarket typically $1,000–$2,000; OEM typically $2,200–$3,500
With the V6 setup, total installed costs are substantially higher than the I4 option, especially if you choose OEM parts.
Parts options: OEM vs aftermarket
Choosing between OEM and aftermarket parts affects price, fit, and warranty. The following ranges illustrate typical cost differences you can expect to see.
- OEM Honda catalytic converters (direct replacement): generally more expensive, around $500–$1,400 per converter depending on engine and model year
- Aftermarket catalytic converters (direct-fit): commonly $150–$600 per converter, with universal-fit units sometimes cheaper but may require welding or custom installation and may carry different warranties
OEM parts tend to offer guaranteed fit and a stronger warranty but at a higher upfront price, while aftermarket parts can save money but vary in quality and coverage. Labor costs are additional regardless of part choice and can vary by shop and region.
Summary
The cost to replace a catalytic converter on a 2010 Honda Crosstour hinges on engine type (2.4L I-4 with one cat vs. 3.5L V6 with two cats), part choice (OEM vs. aftermarket), and local labor rates. Expect aftermarket parts to be cheaper upfront, with installed totals typically around a few hundred dollars for the 2.4L setup and around a thousand to a few thousand dollars for the 3.5L setup. OEM replacements are more expensive, often significantly so, but come with higher warranty and guaranteed fit. Always obtain a written estimate that separates parts and labor, and verify that the parts meet emissions standards for your region.
