Stupid Question

My 335I Coupe had the ability to do the Golf Tee trick to change the stock exhaust sound. Does the 2015 335i Sedan have the same? Did the search.

Thx ahead.

There are no close valves on the 535 (F10) exhaust like the one on the 335.

Yeah I was getting annoyed by the quietness too. There is no valve like the 528 or the 3 series.

What I've learned from the 535 so far is that if you're trying to gain a little sound be very careful on your path to get it. I found what I consider the perfect amount of rumble, but of course that's going to vary person to person.

Try swapping the resonator with an x-pipe?

Thanks! I will look into it. I guess everyone is going with a Dinan or BMW Perfomance system.

Why be careful? Issues with your changes?
