Ive noticed then when my sport hits about 4500 rpm the heat shield on the exhaut resonates,which annoys the sh*t out of me,ive had a look and its the part covering the twin pipe bit just before the exhaust goes into one pipe.
i rekon its loose and rattley cos its been anihilated by speed bumps,and is now so badly scraped its rusted through.
Is the sheild easily removed or re-secured
I rekon my cars been lowered at some stage in its life cos it didnt think it would have hit the bumps with standard suspension,unless the numpty drove straight over them without slowing down.

cheers
