Manifold heatshields, O/S, 3.2 V6
« on: 21 July 2018, 18:39:13 »

I'm having a whale of a time getting in to change my manifold gasket. However, I am either being blind, stupid, or both, as I can't see how to remove the lower of the manifold heatshields. Do I need to get the car back up in the air?

(Currently having an extended coffee break, having snapped some stupid brittle plastic valve, then thrown my toys well and truly out of the pram...!)

Never mind... as expected... I was that busy having a squinny about other matters that I didn't even bother to get my hands on the job. Bolts now removed, heatshield free, and the kettle's back on...!
