We've been getting advisories on a small leak from one of the back boxes for several years and last year for corrosion on the outer skin of the other one.
It's blowing a bit loud now so I imagine I'll need a new exhaust for the MOT.
I've been googling and I can't find a price for the BWM original part - something that was quoted over a grand a few years back when I first looked
There are various 3rd party ones but I know nothing about after-market exhausts - Milltek & Scorpion keep popping up.
I'll also need the carriers as they're corroded.
There are non-resonated and resonated parts which seem to affect the volume and/or performance.
Some ads seem a bit coy about passing MOTs and being street legal though
My partner loves the car. I'm not ruling out the BMW part given the first one lasted 15yrs and we're planning on keeping the car indefinitely.
What am I looking for - any suggestions or recommendations?
