my car makes a squeaky bonnet noise when its on, its pretty noticeable, the left side of the bonnent does not close all the way done, it leave a small gap that can't close all down, but the right side closes all the way down. How can i fix my annoying problem.
uneven bonnet is because of bad jacking spot... radiator out and bash the support down job. and doe the squeek... i just wd-40'ed the whole latch system...
OR your bonnet stop on one side is too high. Check that first before you take a sledgehammer to your car's frame.
ok i got a hammer what do you want me to bash do you want me to bash the radiator support guard. Dam annoying sound.
Maybe you need a new pair of these http://www.conceptzperformance.com/Cart/description.php?II=947&Car_Type=NIS300&UID= When they are worn or badly adjusted the squeek will drive you crazy.
there is a nissan store that sell original stuff here in rockdale, i mite go suss them out tommorow. My ones look ok, but the bonnent is making the sound, people can hear me on the street that squeek gets ppls attention. I Hope its these i don't want to go bashing the car to fix the bonnent.
Mine had a bad Bonnet squeak and we found the Bonnet Bolts were loose, check they are tight and maybe put more washers under them to make them sit tighter thats what I did and have had no more trouble. As for bonnet height, i found the bonnet mat sat on top of the engine, Ive removed mine but if you have any hoses or cables running over the Plennum it will hold the bonnet up and probably squeak as well.
2nded, adjust rubber stops or replace them, also try vaseline on the tops. Also check bonnet latch is adjusted right. Do all these BEFORE you hammer anything.:zlove:
If yours are in good nick, then the adjustment on them should still "hopefully" work. you can unscrew the top half of them to raise them for more bonnet balance. Have you tried that yet?
hmmmm mines all screwed it my bonnet black things. They look old, but not comming apart. So you reckon i should ajust it to half way each. Having a closer look at the bonnet it appears both sides, are not fully closed. But left side is slightly higher.
bump I'm on the same boat however I did stumble upon this http://www.pexcom.com.au/z32cms/e107_plugins/content/content.php?content.297
