Bonnet Lever

[Amm]

Hi guys just got a little problem....

the black lever inside of my car no longer "clicks" so that the bonnet will pull up!

It feels like it has already been pulled out to its limit and is very loose, so to open it i had my wife hold the lever and i opened it from the outside. This is ok but im fussy and would like to get it fixed and keep my car as new and working as much as possible.

Now my questions are

1. how do i look at it from the inside and does anyone have experience in fixing it

or

2.Is it a problem from the outside, were it clicks in?

Apologies before hand if its confusing

Hey Ammon,

With the bonnet up, follow the cable through the firewall. Follow it towards the latch. Before you hit the latch there should be a point where the cable is fixed to the car with a bolt and a small clamp. Loosen this and pull the cable back up to the firewall so the cable is nice and tight/taught and retighten the bolt.

You dont adjust it from inside the car, I also believe you cannot adjust the bonnet striker (too much:). You may be able to try loosening these bolts and retightening to move the bracket a few mm also (only needed if its bent)
