Hello,
Just had to replace the manifold header on my Vibe 2010, base, 2.4L (227,000 km). But the heating shield was all rusted and could not be put back in place, a new part cost around $250 here in Canada, so the garage told me not to bother with it, that it was not necessary... I'm not so sure about that... Anyone knows if it's safe to drive without the manifold heat shield in the engine?
Thanks.
