Hi guys yesterday I want under my 2011 for the first time . Successfully installed an engine block heater ! when I was under there I noticed an opening in the plastic that covers bottom of the motor compartment It was under what looks like the transmission on the driver side of the car . I was working through the access door to the oil filter of course . My question is Is there supposed to be two doors under the car and one just is not been replaced ?
There's a gap in our's too. I think it's to make the drain and fill transaxle bolts semi-accessable, and/or to check appearance of CV boot. That said, I just the whole panel off, for oil and/or transaxle fluid change. There's some variation in the fasteners, mainly a couple in vicinity of the oil flap are more heavy duty. The rest are more-or-less interchangable. I think there's some minor differences, but I got mine muddled, early on, LOL.
