Heat Shield On Exhaust Cracked
Best Answer Wiggy , 29 March 2018 - 03:06 PM
Minisport have one, apparently.
Although I still think the Jubilee clip method would work. Just done it on the wife's MR2. All the heat shield bolts had rusted/rattled away. Worked a treat.

I recently noticed that on one side of my heat sheild, it has cracked and come away slightly. This has caused a slight rattle about 3k rpm. Any ideas as to how I go about sorting this out.
Thanks,
Dan

Ok the exhaust manifold? Not sure how youd get it round it. On the catalytic converters it would work.

I guess it depends on where and much its cracked.
Pictures would be useful.
I used THIS. The quality was crap, but they're stainless and I got them to work with some farting about.

Thanks for the replies. I've managed to get a big jubilee clip around the shield. Its all good now.
Thanks again
Dan
