2003 XLT Question.

[fatezer0]

I have a 2003 Explorer XLT and I took it to my mechanic today for a noise problem on the drivers side under the hood. He told me it was a plastic bag/cover under my motor that Ford installs so rodents and such cannot get inside. When I turn my car off the air is hitting this plastic bag/cover and its making sort of a grinding noise. He said the plastic had to be replaced but my question is does anyone know what the part is called and if someone knows what I am talking about, do you also know how much the part would run in price?

Thanks

.............. vermin bag.



Is that like a snipe hunt?



Seriously, it may be true, but a) I've never ever ever seen anything like that, even on military vehicles, and b) how would it work?
