Hey All,
I have recently removed the plastic shield that is placed under the oil pan and oil filter. Now that I have tracked down all the oil leaks and continue to repair, very minor, I am thinking of leaving the plastic shield off. It sure is nice when changing the oil and just having the clarity of all the undersides of the engine. Has anyone had any problems with the sheild off? I had an 01 Discovery, but don't remember if that plastic shield was installed. So, those of you who own 01 or 02 model years, do you have a plastic shield under the oil pan and above the differential? It has a round opening for the oil filter replacement.
