I think it is a heat shield or some such. Just needed to know the correct part to order. Thanks.

Hi,

Is it possible for you to take a few pics and upload them for me to see? It could be a heat shield, but I can't confirm without seeing it.

Let me know.

Thanks for your quick reply, Joe. I'll do that now, I think I posted them in comments by mistake.

The item in the first pic appears to be the muffler. The outer skin may have rusted and come apart. Pic 2 appears to be the cover from the muffler and not a heat shield.

The A1 isn't offered in the US, but that is what it appears I am seeing. If possible, take a pic up close to the rear of the muffler in pic 1 so I can confirm.

Take care,

Joe
