Rattles from the bonnet!

Post by WoohYeahJunior »

Hey guys! So I fixed the rattles from my window (finally) and I thought that was all the rattling in my car that really annoys me but now I'm getting a rattle from the front. I suspect that it's my bonnet as I tap it and it's the same noise as I hear when I hit a light bump.

Has anyone else had this problem? If so... How can I fix it?

The bonnet latch could be loose and needs to be tightened maybe?

The bonnet stay might also be bent and rattling on something?

Can't remember if bonnet has those adjustable rubber coils. If so, try adjusting them.

x2 just behind the headlights + x2 just infront of the radiator.
They are round black rubber stoppers and they have an arrow on them.
As you unscrew the stopper they raise up higher.
