Giddy posted this top of page 8.. Dinan looks and sounds way better as well.
"This is literally identical to the rattles I was having with the MPE. BMW replaced it 3 times and it would always come back. Let us know how it goes!" |

My Honda did that, with the silencer in on the apexi exhaust 20 years ago. Not acceptable here.

Still would take Dinan over MPE given the choice. Sounds and looks better IMO, plus customer service is a hard thing to come by these days it seems. Dinan does a good job of that from what I can see

Bummer man. That's the same exact rattle sound I hear on my exhaust only yours sounds worse. I'm taking mine back as well to have my valves checked again. I discovered that even after cold start AND in Sport mode, I still get a little bit of a rattle, although not nearly as bad as yours.

I have no idea but it is going back this week for the fix. Dinan and Carbahn are in communication so I should be good to go. I'm chalking this up early adoption growing pains....

Well glad someone has had a good experience. Meanwhile I seem to keep getting the run around. Hoping this gets worked out or I'll have to go with a different exhaust.

Glad it's been smooth but dang... was it so bad that it was not driveable? Why not take it back in when the new exhaust arrives? I am definitely on pause now with purchasing this exhaust. Although the customer service seems to be great, this is my daily and I don't want the headaches..

Same. Andrew mentioned 4-6 weeks. He was adamant that the cold start rattling will not go away, but hopefully my rattles after cold start will. Fingers crossed! And thanks to Dinan for the great communication and helping me diagnose this!

Wanted to post an update. I've had the exhaust on for a few weeks now and haven't heard any rattling at all.
At first I had an issue with getting the tips pushed in, but after driving it seemed to warm it up enough to where I could easily slide them in or out. I'll be making a video soon! |

For reference - I'm running a CG Precision catted DP and Mission Stage 2 tune through my stock muffler and zero rattle issues
