CSBenno Posted May 14, 2022 Share Posted May 14, 2022 Couldn't open the bonnet. Looked at a few posts. Had a go... Loosen, before removing, the cable ducting and airbag key housing trim. Just let the airbag key trim hang. You need to loosen this to access the bonnet pull handle locking pin/clip (see picture). Once you lift thisnpin/clip the bonnet release handle can be removed - use a flat head screw driver to lift the pin. Remove the bonnet release handle and you can remove the cable housing trim. There are 3 hex/star securing screws that keep the cable cam in place. Remove these and you can remove the cable cam - use flat head screw driver to prise away from car. Then you release the cable from the cam. I left the cable hanging so I can use grips to open the bonnet until it goes in for a service. Simply do the reverse to tidy things up. This is a frustrating and time consuming job. Shouldn't have to do this on a 3 year old car... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
