Anyone do the ER Downpipe install on a xDrive 28i?
Hey guys,
Attempted to do the install per the instructions but ran into a few roadblocks along the way. First off, had to remove the belly pan, mid pan, "stiffening plate". Not really all that difficult, just more than I was prepared for. Next, the two bolts holding the bracket onto the transmission were a bitch to remove--not a lot of space to work in and needed specialty tools to get them out. After that, I could not get v band clamp to come loose. We were able to get the bolt out, but could not wedge it open. I didn't even attempt to remove the sensors...not enough room to work and wasn't sure there was enough cord to pull out the sensors anyway. Anyone have any feedback? I definitely want to do the install, and will contact ER when they open back up, but it's a little more than straight forward. Thanks. |
