    bonnet rattle

    Hi Guys, I have a rattle in the right hinge of my bonnet and its DRIVING ME CRAZY. I have tried adjusting every thing, i have changed the hinge bushes. I just cant stop it. I have read on here some where that the anti rattle function is done by two rubber stops on the fire wall that the rear of the bonnet rests aganst. Do all mdl defas have these stops?? Cause i just cant find them.

    Oh and its a 2002 130.

    Thanks for helping me stay sane hahahahha

    wrap insulation tape round the bushes so they are a neat fit then use a stanley knife or similar to cut the tape for the notch..

    spray with silicone lubricant and refit.

    works well... most of the time :P
