What are you driving: year, color? I may have seen you around. Not many e61 even in this big metro area. Every time I get any service done the Seattle BMW SM sends me an actual letter asking to buy my car! Told me in person he has a list of people who want a 6 spd 535 e61.
I had no doubt about that! That's the first thing I did. Was a no brainer for me, before I'd consider any other mod.

So the rattle in my exhaust got significantly worse over time. To address the problem, we decided to do some cutting...

Problem Solved!
This also helped to balance the position of the exhaust tips exiting the rear bumper

Would have been awesome if you had a before and after sound clip, but at least give us your subjective feedback in the meantime!

I don't think sound clips are ever any good but anyone in the Seattle area is welcome to message me in case you're in the ares when I am - I'll let you hear mine in person....

Thread revival. I'm searching Google with no luck but has anyone just done a simple Magnaflow 14816 muffler (very popular on the E38 (I've got two on my 740iL) & E39 platform) on a 535, mine being a 535xiT in particular.
