Yolmol Posted June 28, 2011 Report Share Posted June 28, 2011 Hello! So this was duff on my 330I - the thin bracket in the middle of the car (underneath the handbrake area) had snapped in two but I could live with it. However, the same thing has happened on my 330CI which is fair enough, but, the exhaust occasionally touches the bracket and it sounds like a wasp is trapped! Is it worth having the bracket welded if possible or can it be replaced? When I looked at it I though it was part of the system so couldn't be replaced - only repaired - but probably wrong!!

autosri Posted June 28, 2011 Report Share Posted June 28, 2011 Mine did this also used to make a clicking sound on hard acceleration as the bracket tapped the other half I just had it welded cost a tenner and has been fine ever since Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Yolmol Posted June 29, 2011 Author Report Share Posted June 29, 2011 Ok cool - had hoped to get a replacement bracket but if it fixes easy enough with a weld who am i to complain. I will add it to the list of things to be done at kwik fit!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
simonlpearce Posted June 29, 2011 Report Share Posted June 29, 2011 Wouldn't trust quick fit to weld anywhere near my car . Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
