Yeah, I messed around with the shifter and had to remove a bolt from the heat shield. I wouldn't be surprised if the bolts gone to be honest. I had problems getting the bolts out and when one broke free, I couldn't screw it back on...
I took the upper heat shield to the cat off as that was gone. The jpipe heat shield is gone too. There's also a rattle nearer the rear of the car when the cars warming up. I don't know what exactly is making that noise though. I'll have a poke around after lunch and after I drop my car off at home. I have to trek on the highway and I think my tires are out of balance b/c over 75mph, the car wobbles a little bit. If I haven't already asked, could anyone elaborate on the possible causes?
Re: heatshields - Just get rid of them all, otherwise you'll do like most of us and end up removing them one at a time over the next coming months/years.
As for the "wobble" you mentioned, is there any shimmy in the steering wheel? Or does the whole car feel like it's wobbling? If it's the former, then you're probably right about having a tire out of balance. If it's the latter, you have potentially dangerous problem with your suspension =/
