Hi all my first post here..

Been reading on this site for a while now and have been looking to have the flexi joints replaced on my e39 BMW 530d and charlie's company seems to be the one to go for!! seemed a genuine polite guy on the phone and knew what he was talking about

also might look into getting a price for a stainless system whilst im there

just wondered on your guys opinions ??

Charlie is an old fashion no BS exhaust maker.

I would not use anyone else.

Cheers,

Glad you enjoyed your first pro-speed experience. It always leads to going back again and again and i'm sure it won't be your last. Charlie and the boys are awesome!

What did you have done Rich? Any pics?

nothing major this time the flexi pipes were worn though and i wanted new ones fitted! amazing work ,

however i may pop back there as the car seems really boomy (?) only on idle, the flexis were slightly shorter, but that shouldn't make a difference. im thinking the flexis need time to loosen up ??

any ideas people

Thanks

Give Charlie a ring Rich. As he's done all the work on the parts, he'll be able to advise you best i would have thought. He'll always be happy to help, as he's a stickler for quality and making sure the customer is happy. Its another reason so many of us always go back to him and can always recommend him.
