Why?
The heat shield won't affect the function of the cat or the emissions.
No, they'd ask their mum.
Did the electronic diagnosis stick it's little electronic head under the car, reach round the cat, and give the heat sheild a good shake to see if it'd come loose, then? I've not seen one do that before...
Oh the heat shield!
No, I got the whole exhaust checked at another garage and they gave it all a good bashing from the cat downward.
