ellis Posted May 3, 2013 Share Posted May 3, 2013 This isn't going to turn into a 'Where's the Boot Release?' thread is it?!! Has the cable snapped? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pig Posted May 3, 2013 Author Share Posted May 3, 2013 Lol, lets hope not! Nope cable is fine and I have pulled it even further but it's still locked shut Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kaan W Posted May 3, 2013 Share Posted May 3, 2013 Locate the black sleeve in the drivers footwell and push it forward whilst pulling the release... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
downimpact Posted May 3, 2013 Share Posted May 3, 2013 Have someone puling on the bonnet up while someone releases the lever. May take a couple of goes, this has worked for me on a number of cars. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tsia Posted May 3, 2013 Share Posted May 3, 2013 Mine was like this at first. I had to have someone constantly pull the lever whilst I kept pushing down on the lid until it finally sprung free. I then WD40'd the tits off it and it has worked fine since. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tried that and it won't budge. Heard if click open a couple of times but it still didn't move. Pulled from the lip bit it's firmly stuck Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
