Shouldn't that be under the emissions system warranty, which is almost
always well over 60k?  Also, how much in labor, how much in parts?  Is
the catalytic converter part of the exhaust manifold/downpipe, or a
separate unit?

Central Service Garage in Natick.  Ask for Dave, the owner.

I used him for a couple of years with my 200q20v because he was quick,
competent, and didn't go on wallet fishing expeditions.  Popped in and
said hello recently, and he's got a silver S6 now as his daily driver.
He's literally across the street from the commuter rail station,
super convenient.
