Hi All,

I just lifted the bonnet on the ****box for the first time since I fitted the replacement motor ...... Does anyone else have a bonnet that wobbles around a lot while your driving along? Every range rover I've owned does that to a certain extent. This one has always wobbled around a LOT. However today I noticed the hinge area has almost completely fatigue cracked and separated out of the back of the bonnet .... There's not much more than hopes and dreams holding that sucker shut. Has anyone been down this road before that can suggest a simple fix ? I'm probably going to have to weld in re-enforcing plates around the entire area. Welding the cracks closed would just burn holes everywhere and lead to it cracking again.

I'm guessing the bonnet steadies not being adjusted on each corner of the bonnet (to stop is moving around) is the cause of this! if your bonnet wobbles aroudn .... check the rubbers on those stays and adjust them up snuggly!!

seeya,
