AndyMB Posted February 10, 2013 Share Posted February 10, 2013 Couldn't find an answer when I searched for this. I have a standard glanza bonnet and vent. When I'm going along the motorway it jumps up and down on its catch. Do they all do this or is there some way of adjusting the height in the latch? Getting paranoid it's going to just open itself one day! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Jim* Posted February 10, 2013 Share Posted February 10, 2013 Mine dosent do this mate so I'd deffo take a look at why it's doing it! Bonnet pins would stop this mate Quote Link to post Share on other sites
LeeG Posted February 10, 2013 Share Posted February 10, 2013 All my glanza's have done this never had one open yet. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
kbond Posted February 10, 2013 Share Posted February 10, 2013 Are the rubber bonnet stops too low?If not then try taking the catch off and make the holes longer so it sits lower Quote Link to post Share on other sites
akyakapotter Posted February 10, 2013 Share Posted February 10, 2013 Mine dose this nothing to worry about Quote Link to post Share on other sites
AndyMB Posted February 10, 2013 Author Share Posted February 10, 2013 Thanks for the info everyone. At least I have nothing to worry about. I might try moving the latch as well Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Matt1878 Posted February 10, 2013 Share Posted February 10, 2013 Never had this problem before :/ Quote Link to post Share on other sites
morgey Posted February 10, 2013 Share Posted February 10, 2013 Wrap the metal bar that the catxh hooks on to in insulation tape, both my cars do it, its a cheap easy fix and lasts months. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Ryan-11 Posted February 10, 2013 Share Posted February 10, 2013 adjust the bonnet catch down and screw the rubber stops up, that should do the trick Quote Link to post Share on other sites
morgey Posted February 10, 2013 Share Posted February 10, 2013 The bonnet catch isnt adjustable, raising the rubbers just puts the bonnet out of line Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Ryan-11 Posted February 10, 2013 Share Posted February 10, 2013 Mines had a bit of adjustment in it, i had to do it when i fitted my carbon bonnet, i think i had to loosing off the bottom bolt on the center supporter bar thing. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
morgey Posted February 10, 2013 Share Posted February 10, 2013 Mine must have already been done then, anyway tape works well enough for me lol Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Ryan5793 Posted February 10, 2013 Share Posted February 10, 2013 my old na did this when i put a glanza bonnet on at first so bought another bonnet catch and it never did it again Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Chris_GlanzaV98 Posted February 10, 2013 Share Posted February 10, 2013 Adjust the bonnet stopper mate just to the inside of both headlights iirc probs need to move them up Quote Link to post Share on other sites
AndyMB Posted February 10, 2013 Author Share Posted February 10, 2013 I'll try and adjust the stoppers. Will wrap the catch with insulation tape too Quote Link to post Share on other sites
turbo Grant Posted February 10, 2013 Share Posted February 10, 2013 Have you got the support bar on the catch? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
