Hi all. I have read a couple of threads on here where people are mentioning heat shields and gas vents.
My exhaust on my T6 is mid mounted. So no tailpipe to the back of the van. There is a heatshield there though on the rear offside side. Presumably standard figment at the VW factory?
Could I drill a vent hole down through the floor and expect any leaking gas to naturally dissipate out of the gas locker and to atmosphere above the best shield.
The opposite near side just had a plastic cover. Although I don’t know what it is covering?
Pictures attached.
