I took in my TLS for a trans leak but also got a 1600 RPM metallic buzzing diagnosed while I was there. They said it was a couple of heat shields. Which one are the talking about ($500 one) here?

A.K.A are there any sweet ninja tips i dont know about. "Stick this flathead here and twist".

I know the cost of the part is probably cheap but can i get at it without busting my knuckles open? I base this off of smacking the last rusty shield off with a pipe on the side of a highway.

it's on the back of the engine so you'll have to jack off the car and try to reach in there to remove. Since you'd be getting rid of it, probably don't need much finesse but you'll may have some issues as it can be sort of tight.
