Just installed DP's and car is vibrating

[B135i-e82]

Hey guys

I thought I would post on both the 1addicts forums and e90post as I have searched up what the issue could be but thought I might get a definite answer with a new post as the last one I read did not really clarify anything.

Just installed my dp's over the weekend, car sounds amazing now paired with my eisenmann exhaust, pulls real hard and the response on the throttle is amazing.

I am having just a slight issue and don't know if it will be a problem in the long run as its not that annoying and can sorta live with it....I guess lol

My car is vibrating when I come to a complete stop, so when I'm in park or idling at the lights.
I've read that it may be due to the install which me and a friend did it ourselves while having the car on a hoist (by far the most hardest install I have ever done, took us 5 hours at least Id say and have never done it before).
It could be to do with the heatshield not on correctly or the pipes may not be secured correctly with the vclamp?

Anyone experienced this before?

Cheers

Mine did this occasionally when I ran an open downpipe and it was a little unnerving. Try unhooking your battery for a minute and letting the car reset. Other people have posted about this issue and as far as I'm aware there is no consensus on the cause or solutions.

Most likely an issue with the install. The pipes are probably too close to the engine mount, oil pan or subframe, causing rattles. Youd need to loosen teh vband clamps and rotate the downpipes on the flange slightly to gain more clearance on where it rattling.

Hey VTL,
I'll have to give that a go.
I think we may have tightened the vband clamps possibly to hard.

Could this be a problem in the long run?

Unless you broke the vbands then you should be fine.
