This is was hanging down and resting on my Engine support bar after my drive this evening.
Pretty sure its a piece of sheet metal from somewhere, cylinder head jacket? Anyone know what it is exactly. Should it be as easy as just re-attaching with some bolts somewhere?
Looking to get under the car when I get back home later and things cool down, would appreciate any help, still a noob...
Thanks

Full Version: Kerplunk! Something fell off!
It's the flat plate (warm air guide) that sits on the driver's side heat exchanger. It is attached to the heat exchanger by two cheese head screw and either one or two to the engine case.
It is exactly in the position it should be. Either the attaching screws fell out or the tab they fit in broke off the tin.

I think a tab must have broken off, i cant see how to reattach it. Is it OK to drive it like this for awhile you think?
