How much would it be to have my heat shield replaced. I have had it "fixed" a few times now but it still seems to be giving me some problems. Most noticable is the exhaust tone, which sounds very raspy at certain rpm's. I wanted to know if it is expensive to replace it, or if this is DIY thing.

 

just rip the damn thing off

 

You ccould probably find a used one for cheap.

 

How much do the new one's usually run for?

 

I dont know, call the dealer.

 

i have one for sale (cheap very cheap) only have to pay shipping pretty much

 

I say hit up a "you-pull" salvage yard....they'ed probably let you have it.

 

that too

 

Raspy sound is the gasket between the manifold and the down pipe.

 

Hm..for some reason it doesn't sound as bad anymore...I have no idea why, possibly the weather?
