Question : Is that puny heat shield really necessary?

Question : Is that puny heat shield really necessary?

 

skoda think so      :yes:

I dunno, but i do know it seems to have decided to rattle on swmbo's every now and again....

just havnt been ar5ed crawling under there to sort it out.

Is this the same Skoda that put in no boot light, no illuminated door switches,  a rattling bones gearbox, no arch liners, no soundproofing, candle power headlights, soft paint, semi- adjustable steering wheel, no spare wheel, and a satnav that has a mid-life crisis? ?

 

  I don't think that I would necessarily trust their judgement on the part-time heat shield  (half on the car, half laying on the road)........

That's the one

But I bet you still love it.

It's what they call a pain-pleasure sensation... but I would still like to know if the heat shield can go in the bin..

It has a surprising effect in that it has a remarkable cooling effect but its quality of make is laughable. So I would say keep it if possible or do as many do in Germany make another out of proper aluminium.

Thank you for your reply.

 

I was hoping the answer would be that it's as much use as a chocolate fire-guard!
