Shine a flashlight for me

If you could - shine a light at the mid exhaust hangar in front of where the rear section is attached to the differential - the pipes go below the rear subframe and have rubber hangars there attached to... somewhere on the subframe.

What do you want to see Brendan? The brackets for the rubber exhaust hangers? Please confirm as I may have a picture or two from having an E55 on the ramp before.

So the bracket with the bolts attached seem to connect straight to the subframe? Its hard to tell.

Thanks Alex!

BMW X3

I had a similar problem and spent several months in the service, so at the moment nothing was resolved. When I first contacted the service, they found out for a long time what the problem was, but they said that everything was fine. But after some creepy sounds began to appear under my car that gave me discomfort, I decided to try to solve this problem myself. Right on the highway, I tried to shine a

flashlight

under the car and noticed that my muffler fell off from old age and hit the asphalt. I cannot understand which specialists are accepted into the service if they cannot identify the problem?
