Has anyone had any experience with this downpipe. Looking to get it for my 2016 340i.

I'll be installing one today hopefully. Depends on how the V clamp cooperates. I ordered a new one from ECS just to be safe. My local BMW wanted $97 😂😂!! So hopefully I can get it done today. If not, I'll be waiting until the new clamp shows up.

I have it on my 2017 340. No issues

I have had mine for 4,000+ miles and no issues. Perfect fitment and good quality welds

The install is on hold right now. I read about the V band causing some issues and didn't think mine would be a pain.... well here I am. I would just plan on cutting the bolt and replacing it. I am currently waiting on a whole new V band clamp from ECS. My local BMW (who I have always hated working with) wanted $97. ECS was $52 for the V band clamp and a new gasket. So I'm just going to replace both while I'm in there. I could just cut the bolt and reuse the clamp with a new bolt for a few dollars but, why risk an exhaust leak? So I'd recommend just plan on that step. Everything else was easy and straight forward.
