DP to Exhaust clamp
After installing my Akrapovic I've noticed a rattle on start up that quickly goes away. I've double checked and retightened all the bolts on the exhaust and hasn't seemed to help. I'm thinking it might be the clamp from the stock DP to exhaust that might be causing the rattle. Does anyone know or tried an after market V-band clamp?

Did you replace the clamp when you fitted the new exhaust / downpipe? It has a crush washer that is supposed to be replaced every time.
I'm not convinced it's necessary, but ISTA+ does say to replace it.

I didn't think it was necessary, so never replaced it. Do you know if there is a "beefier" v-band clamp I can replace it with?
