Guest larteyc Posted November 26, 2009 Share Posted November 26, 2009 God knows why but I cant get it open, its just the standard one.. pulling on the lever does nothing at all and she needs some oil Any ideas on how I can get around this? cheers Chris Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Animal Posted November 26, 2009 Share Posted November 26, 2009 The cable could have stretched - try unhooking the cable from the plastic handle and giving the cable a pull, that should pop the bonnet. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kirk Posted November 26, 2009 Share Posted November 26, 2009 i'm afraid you have to cut the hood in half riiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiigghhhhtttttt stick your hand up through the centre opening on the bumper and feel around for the cable, 9 times out of 10 its the plastic piece on the cable thats broken so theres no resistance on the cable to open it so when you pull the cable nothing happens Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
