Hi All,

According to a few things i read on the net this is a common problem.

The bonnet wont open ! You pull the catch inside the car and it wont
open, you hear it click under the bonnet but nothing. How can i get
the bonnet open if this catch wont work ?

Thanks

Have a friend alternately press down and pull up on the front of the
bonnet rapidly while you pull the catch.

That worked great, managed to get it open, put some WD40 on it and its
now working fine.

Thanks

If you want it to stay fine, lubricate it with oil, greese, or even
silicone, but don't rely on WD-40 or you'll soon be in the same position
