I only had the screw at the end that was broken. Ended up fixing it by drilling a hole on the end of the shield at the backside and drilling through chassis. Then I used a bolt that went through the small tool compartment to the heat shield if you know what I mean. Basically a new hole/screw. I do want to thank you for your video as it gave me ideas and a better understanding how to fix this and I also as a means of prevention gave the in-tact bolts rust treatment. For me I did not need to move the exhaust out of the way. Also, 5.5k views versus 42 likes makes me sad. I hope more people leave a like.
Thanks so much for the feedback and glad you got sorted. I think a lot of viewers just watch and move on , I don’t think there’s many who consider the like button. Thanks for watching

Exactly what I was looking for, thank you! what size washers are you using?
Anything around the size of a two pence. 10mm centre hole.👍
@@drivewaydiyer6504 amazing thank you, sure I've got some lying around in the garage
Great vid! I like the washer fix idea :)
Thankyou, still solid now.👍
I have tried to take the first nut off and the bolt split?Any recommendation?
Loads of penetrating oil and try moving the nut both ways, before trying to undo it.
@@drivewaydiyer6504 i have managed to save 2 out of 3.I am thinking to use some epoxy on the place of the 3rd bolt.
You could try that.👍
@@drivewaydiyer6504 I was thinking of Milliput.That would be heat resistant too.
I have same problem in zafira
Would you do it for me ?
I’m sure there’s a few garages close to you who would do it, for not a lot. Thanks for watching.
Do I need the shield there?
I think it protects the fuel tank. So I would have it there.
