Had a loose heat shield (left front) but it only rattled when I hit rough road or speed bumps

It rattled like the French defense when Davids comes to town.

Default Check the lower engine cover... (m)

...the big plastic cover held on by thumbscrews under the engine.

One or more of the thumbscrews on the cover on my car came loose and it was rattling and clanking when I closed the doors or hit bumps. Very irritating.

HTH!

Default Not again?

Just make sure Davids has his glasses on the next time they play France. I'm sure M. Desailly will be happy to greet him as a French defender should . . .KNOCK HIM FLAT ON HIS *** AND NOT GET BOOKED!!!

Thanks. I thought that might be a possibility because I just recently had my oil changed.
