Default Grinding noise when shifting from P to R
The archive (link) says that the noise is coming from a u-joint rubbing the heat shield. the solution is by bending the heat shield. where and which heat shield is it? thanks!<ul><li><a href="https://forums.audiworld.com/a4/msgs/372795.phtml">Grinding noise on reverse</a></li></ul>

Default The shield those guys are talking about is just above the mid muffler
It's a very thin heat shield, not too hard for it to get bent up into contacting the propshaft.
