I posted pics sometime back of my 1st set that started coming apart. Small little flakes as it starts to crumble. You only hope under pressure they are getting blown all the way to the rear. But the front of the CAT tends to come apart first, and therefore not enough of the CAT has broke down for the debris to pass.
