My credit is solid even after selling my 2k3 Altima and paying off Nissan.

You only get a credit hit if you DEFAULT on your car and it gets repossesed (sp?)

I would think that if any part of the O2 sensor or cat converter is not rusted or physically damaged, it would not need to be replaced. Like the saying goes. If it ain't broke........

Water should not harm those parts.
Ever see all the water pour out of peoples exhaust after they start the engine.
I see what looks like a gallon pour out of some exhausts.

There is always a lot of condensation in the exhaust.
Only if the water was contaminated with something that poisons the catalyst
or oxy sensor would you have a problem.
