[Vwdiesel] mk2 jetta exhaust tunnel heat shield removal

[Bryan Belman]

I think that would be easier to do then disconnecting the big C-clips on the Exhaust Manifold toilet bowl connector......

Seems like when I replaced all the stuff on a MK11 Golf, I didn't even think of unhooking the exhaust from the manifold.  I undid it from the back of the car, which allowed it to drop and move to the side enough to get at all the parts.

I have a link to a YouTube video on at least the shifter box removal/rebuild on my web page:

I am trying to gain access to the shifter box for a rebuild, but have not found any info in the Bentley or online that specifies what the "rotate off" the exhaust system means. I have tried several times and the shield always get stuck. I do not know if I should bend the heat shield or not, or if I should drop the exhaust down pipe and the muffler just to be able to remove the heat shield and be able to remove the shift box. Any  tips? Thanks.
