Thought it’s about time I swapped the cars – get Gold SORN car back on the road and SORN my Green auto diesel for a while. So decided to check Gold car oil / water first – just needed to open the bonnet . Pull the lever and cable goes slack / floppy , bonnet stays shut and no way I can open it !!!. Do not know if it is a splitter box , bust cable or what. Meanwhile I think this is where I call for help – so HELP. I think this aspect may be seen as a security issue so a PM to me may be required.
Certainly do think I need to drop slam panels on each car and check out / clean / grease all bonnet grips and cables as a task for next year.
All the best.
