V6 exhaust manifold left bank heat shields.
« on: 02 January 2010, 17:14:43 »

Started tackling the exhaust manifold today.

I have got the bottom heat shield off but can't get the top one off. How many of the small Torx bolts are there holding it on? I suspect there is a third one  directly above the cat to manifold joint.! If so how the devil do you get it off?

My plan is then to plus gas the manifold bolts and then take that off tomorrow.

It's on the top corner. Do it by feel from underneath the car. Use an 8mm ring spanner, ideally a ratchet ring spanner.
