My bonnet latch works from inside the car but is really dodgy.

To open the bonnet the lever needs to be pulled so hard the whole dash moves and im worried that sooner or later the cables going to snap...

Anyone encounted this before? howed you fix it?

i thought just wd 40 on the latch but wasnt sure if it would be the latch itself or the friction on the whole cable or at the lever end inside the car.. ill try wd40 a little later.

thanks

(car is a 89 cefiro if that helps)

      There really needs to be an ODBII item that can play intake noise through speakers, synchronized with your current RPM and TPS%.

      So, we now have a straight and clean boot lid inbound and the car goes in for paint, again, on Wednesday, and will be ready on Friday, all ready to get cams and stuff on Monday  And by straight and clean.....I mean a brand new OEM one that cost..... $1300....😪 Sadly there's no clean undamaged used soft top version available, plenty for the power retractable hard top versions though, which is arse and makes Mark have the sads I could have waited longer, until a NC sort top boot lid eventually turned up, but I'm sick of waiting and said fark it and made it rain cash, meh In other naturally aspirated news, one of the guys at work brought in his old Corola which had a 4AGE in it, really nice clean car with lots of mods, including ITB's, man that things induction noise sounds sick with all of the dorts that makes you smile......maybe the NC needs ITB's, yeah, basically for the noise they make, but they're pretty expensive, but, they sound so damn good I may bring this up when I drop the car up on Monday, and by may, I mean I will🤣🤑🤪🤣
