2013 GTC 1.6t engine under tray - Padster - 6:th-Dec-2017

Hi,

Quick question - Should a 2013 Astra GTC 1.6t petrol have a plastic under tray? I was filling the screen wash in my car and suddenly realised I could see the ground beneath my engine.

I can't remember my last car not to have one.

Thanks for the reply Andy.

I thought all modern cars had them but thanks for confirming it shouldn't be there.

I think the only reason the diesels have them is to keep any debries off the dpf due to the tempatures it gets up to during a regen. So that will be probably why yours doesn't but you would have thought every car at this day and age would have it the undertray.

I assembled this shield for the engine a month ago in my GTC.
