Heat shield

[supermega]

Hi all,

Just wondering if any of you citigo owners have had a broken heat shield? My up has started to make a funny rattle at idle, the noise stops when I place my hand on top of the engine block. The noise isn't apparent at first idle on when fully up to temp and the revs drop down.

Not heard of anyone mentioning that particular problem as of yet mate

Bet its annoying though :(

This has been mentioned on the Up forum: http://www.upownersclub.co.uk/forum/broken-heat-shields_topic4051.html

Thanks for that, I think I may of already posted on that one. Was just keen to see if it was an up issue or a wider one. Car is booked in for new parts in a couple of weeks as they spotted an issue. I was worried, as I had stopped making the clattering noise.

A friend had their shield/exhause bracket taken out by a whole sugar beet in the road?
