stormseeker 0 Posted February 14, 2004 The exhaust passes directly under the gearlever - as kevhaywaire's already pointed out, there should be heatshields on the underside of the body to stop too much heat transfer. Have you recently changed you exhaust? or fitted a cat bypass or something that might have disturbed the heatshields? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
