2005 Santa Fe suffering from lack of power. Very sluggish. Exhaust pipe after catalytic converter overheats bright red after 5 mins of use. I think the fuel mixture is too lean. No error codes. plugs, coils and fuel filter changed. catalytic converter checked not blocked. Any suggestions

Check engine light on? Check for stored codes. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ We offer help in answering questions, clarifying things or giving advice but we are not a substitute for an on-site inspection by a professional.

Did this problem start after you did your tune up? There are two cats on this vehicle. One is attached to the exhaust manifold and the other is in the intermediate pipe. How did you check the exhaust system for excessive back pressure? Since we volunteer our time and knowledge, we ask for you to please follow up when a problem is resolved.

No check engine light thus no codes

The cat converters were removed and inspected for blockage.

Not seeing a check engine light doesn't automatically mean there will be no codes stored in memory. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ We offer help in answering questions, clarifying things or giving advice but we are not a substitute for an on-site inspection by a professional.
