rajarella 0 Posted October 25, 2009 Right I am unable to open the bonnet on the drivers side. I have read the knowledge base article and am trying to release it manually. The problem is I can't fit my hand up past the pulleys. Anyone got any tips? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Reggit 0 Posted October 25, 2009 Have you tried having someone gently trying to lift the bonnet on the stuck side whilst you pull the release lever? Mine used to stick on the passenger side, I found that usually worked. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
mimjed 0 Posted October 25, 2009 ah yeah if the cable hasnt snapped, you should get away with; close bonnet (passenger side) - get a mate to stand on drivers side and pull it up as you pull the handle - worked to get mine a few times till the cable snapped. might have to repeat a few times though Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
