My Bonnet Jumps Up And Down :(

as title says. as i drive along my bonnet kinda jumps up and down. is there anything to adjust? probly 1/2 cm in play. but it rattles when i turn the car off!

There are adjustable rubber pads on each side at the front which can be screwed up or down. I fixed mine by adjusting and also using a couple of self adhesive rubber pads.

also, if your bonnet sits too high after adjusting those knobs, turn them back down so the bonnet is flush when in the closed position, then adjust the latch down a few mm at a time till the bonnet doesnt move anymore. you may need to move the rubber stoppers up a little to compensate for moving the latch down.

just be careful you dont have the rubber stoppers too high and the latch too low, you MIGHT bend the bonnet.

ohh yeah another thing, if you find the latch all the way down, and its still vibrating. get a block of wood and a hammer and beat the catch in the bonnet up a little. i had to do that on one of my cars.... i called it a 're-alignment'
