My mate had a look in my engine bay last night when he was pissed, and when he was done, he put the rod thing that holds it up to the side of the clip it should go in, not in it. He then slammed it shut. The side without the rod in down further than usual, but the side with the rod has hit against it stopping it from closing all the way.

The pull cable in the footwell does nothing know, and i cant find anyway to open my bonnet

can anyone give me some help

cheers

when that happened to mine i just got my mate to pull the bonnet release fully out, so if it was working it would release it, then get my hands under it and give it a pull at the bonnet untill it became loose. i dont know if its the same thing but just try yanking the bonnet as hard as you can. it worked for me
