Hi everyone........
This is a heat shield question...........Is there a best advice as to how to stop them rattling, they sound like a bag of nails jangling around..........I have read other posts on here. It seems most people just remove them (I am talking about the two piece heat shield about the exhaust system).
I suppose the heat shields don't have too much heat to deal with on a small car such as a micra but they did put them there so Nissan must have seen a need for them.
Unusually the bolts were all ok when I took them off on (only just mind) they are now covered with oodles of coppergrease so removing them would be a two minute job but if possible I would like to keep them on.
Something like rubber spacer washer both sides of the heatshield? Or similar?
Anyone know the secret of how to stop the rattle?
Thanks everyone etc.
Tom
