S124 e220
Hi
I’m a brand spanking new member, hi. Apologies but I could not find a new member forum.

I am a newish owner of a s124 e220. I have been going round the merc doing bits that needed sorting and noticed a rattling when driving

I have found the culprit. The double exhaust down pipes before they both go in to the next section have a double skin thing I imagine it’s a heat shield. But that is what’s broken at the end and rattling like a gooden.

Is this essential or can I cut it out or buy a replacement part?

Cheers

Dan
 
It’s a heat shield. I just reattached mine. You can buy heat shield clips for a few quid on amazon which should fix it back without having to remove it. The clips you want are a circular with a star clip and they hammer over the existing bolts / pegs and hold it up. They work a treat as long as you can gain access by sliding under the car.

But unsure as to how they work though.
What do you do with them?
