Berk Exhaust

Luvmybmw · 05-18-2009, 11:17 AM

Stupid question

, but do you think the dealership will "have a problem" with the new Berk Exhaust I had installed. I know they obviously will hear and see it. Any comments are welcome!

I think im gonna leave mine on when the car needs its next service. I don't think they will care since its only an axleback. Once you start removing cats and or resinators then I can see them saying something.

We will have to see though..

Let us know how you make out.

Honestly I don't think they would notice at all.

Both I think. There's no cats that were removed or anything when you use an axleback. It's just about as harmless as putting on a different set of wheels, and I haven't ever heard of a service dept making a fuss over wheels.

We think that you should be fine but the thing is every dealership is different. Keep us updated on how everything goes.

My car is at the dealer basically getting the engine rebuilt, and they haven't said a word about my Berk. It's pretty impossible not to notice.

anyone know how much lighter the Berk exhaust is over Stock?

Yes2m3cs · 05-21-2009, 06:41 AM

I would say at least 25 pounds lighter..stock is a brick compared to the berk exhaust.
