Q: How to service the exhaust heat shield on Lincoln LS?
A: Service of the exhaust heat shield begins by lifting the vehicle before removing the attaching bolts on both the LH and RH heat shields.

Q: How to service and repair exhaust heat shields on Lincoln Navigator?
A: A service or repair process of exhaust heat shields begins with raising and supporting the vehicle. Double check that the exhaust system has all heat shields securely attached while examining for small debris between shields and exhaust components. Worm gear clamps with part numbers F0TZ-5A231-A and W705949-S300 should be used to secure any loose heat shields and users should trim off the excess ear of the clamps. When heat shields are absent you must install both fresh heat shields and everything required for the exhaust system. Finally, lower the vehicle.
Q: What precautions should be taken before servicing the exhaust heat shields for the catalytic converter and muffler on Lincoln Town Car?
A: It is necessary to turn off the air suspension system electrical power before repairing heat shields on the catalytic converter and muffler because power fluctuations can lead to unpredictable air spring expansion or contraction which might cause vehicle shifting. The vehicle should be parked on a hoist with the air suspension system disable switch turned off while remaining in NEUTRAL gear. First examine the exhaust system for heat shields that are loose or damaged or completely missing from their position. Worm clamps of types F0TZ-5A231-A or W705949-S300 should be used to secure loose heat shields then trim off the remaining clamp ear. Heat shields need replacement with new components or you must use necessary exhaust system parts if shields are missing or damaged.
