I have a 89 325i cabby and have been having trouble getting a new gasket for manifold to downpipes. In the bentley manual it shows 2 manifolds and seperate downpipes, but mine has 1 manifold and the downpipes have 1 flange. I have tried ECP's and Exhausts Unlimited with no luck. I was wondering whether I have the wrong type fitted. It looks like the 318i system in the Bentley manual, but a six port. Any one have any ideas?

As far as i am aware, there is 2 types, a 3 bolt and a 4 bolt flange. (Flange !!! dont you just love that word !!)

Sure is, just made me giggle. Mine is a 4 bolt diamond shape. Just keep searching I guess. The old one is shagged.
