Flange on left header not welded?
Hello,
I removed me exhaust today and the left header doesn't have a welded flange, the right header's flange is welded on and can't move. Please see pictures below. |

Not sure if it's supposed to be that way. IIRC mine has them both fixed. E46 M3s has them like yours to give u adjustability if needed. Not a big deal really

Yes, it is. Also if you don't want it to rattle or give you trouble it's best to get a new gasket from the dealer (they are really thick, silver donuts) and replace it otherwise that flange and header to pipe set up can rattle.

Let me help you out. It's not welded. Its held on with this (See photo). It's just the other side has melted. I had to chip mine off. When you replace I would replace the copper nuts and bolts as well. I hope this helps.
