I’ve been banging my head against this. Would be interested to hear how y’all would troubleshoot. I picked up new RE exhaust hangers to replace my stock ones which have never been replaced, and am installing these along with my new Supersprint Sport muffler. However, I seem to be running into a fitment issue with these hangers on this muffler. Long story short, I’m not able to get the muffler fully seated into the section 2 pipes likely due to the hangers not giving me enough clearance against the wheel well. I may try using one of the stock hangers in this position instead. Any other thoughts/tips anyone can lend me?

You may have to use OE mounts on the driver's side on the R.E. on the passenger side only. I currently run the R.E mount on the passenger side only as it keeps my SCZA muffler solid enough to not hit the EVAP canister.
Your issue may have to do with the R.E. mounts or just the fact that aftermarket stuff doesn't always land in the same place as factory. Too bad, as those R.E mounts are quite nice, and expensive.
If you ever get rid of them let me know2004 Silbergrau Metallic 6MT

Anyone have insight on fault codes:

Vehicle voltage should be under 15.5(about)
I would fix that issue first and the rest might go away
Start with a volt meter
Measure battery voltage with car off
Should be around 12v
Start car and measure battery voltage again
If you are reading anything above 15v you can have a bad alternator or voltage regulator (which is on the alternator)

I have a 2004 M3
I will be installing the Karbonius intake once it arrives
I’m just trying to get things ready
My question is
Can I re use my boots or do I need boots from abs earlier model m3
Can’t really find a answer
I even emailed karbonius they said they don’t know the installation ???
And provided me with a customers email that does installs in England.
