Bonnet won't shut

Unread post by JamieLeeWV »

Went to add some washee fluid to my 308 earlier but now the boot won't shut? It latches onto the catch but won't shut down fully? Anyone know any ideas how to fix this?

On our 308, to close the bonnet it has to be dropped from about a foot. This is in the handbook and also advice from the dealer when I had it serviced and asked them to adjust it. Some grease on the lock parts also helps. Pressing on the bonnet does not work, unlike all the other cars we have owned.

Yes this was it. Thank you mate topic can now be closed as issue sorted. Strange as all my other cars you lightly pressed down and they clicked into place 🤷🏻???
