Have any of you with MK2's replaced the bonnet latch mechanism yet?
I read on other sites it can be a common problem on older GS's as well so looks like a design flaw, basically a ball bearing knackers up or something in the cable that connects the latch in the car to the lock mechanism on the bonnet and it sticks so the bonnet won't shut.
It usually fixes itself though if you're doing about 40 and do an emergency stop or alternatively just leave it 24 - 48 hours and then you can shut it again.
Been having a look through the EPC and found the following details for the cable itself:
53630 CABLE ASSY, HOOD LOCK CONTROL
53630‑30250 JZS16* 1 $30.32
Is this all that requires replacing do any of you know please? Put an image below so you can see all the bits
Thanks in advance!
