Does anyone know how many pieces it comes in?

The centre piece looks like its going to soon need replacing. I wanted a throatier sound, but obviously not too loud or boy-racerish.

I'm sure I read the best thing for this is to replace the middle section and not the tail pipe?

Any ideas?

Has anyone else done a 316i part or complete exhaust change, and if so, where did you get the parts and at what cost?

I recently had to replace the back half of the exhaust system on my M40 engined 316i Touring. I say half because there are only two sections. The rear of the system cost £56.00 inc Vat from GSF car parts and was a very good fit.

Mine does not have a CAT fitted and i don't Know which models did.

Good luck with it.

Here's a pic of the section in question............

Thanks. Yes, it's taken from the driver's side, lying under the driver's door. Okay then, so I need a new front pipe. Is the de-cat pipe legal? I reckon I'm best getting a standard front section and putting a nice twin box on the back.

As you're en France, I don't know.
Over here, as long as you put the cat back on for the MOT it's not a problem.
If the French regs allow it, I think I'd put a non-cat system on it with a nice single outlet stainless rear section.
Just my 2p (or eurocents as the case may be).

Okay, thanks for that. Will look into what's what............

Shame you are in France as I have a stainless rear section with a 3" outlet which has a nice growl.
