Hi all I went to my D3 this morning to do weekly checks only to find that the offside bonnet catch won’t release! Near side is perfect and I can lift it. Any ideas what to do? Patman

PeSu... I'm sure a note to Martin will sort out your account!
And now I know you're not a newbie, I've sent a less cryptic PM .

| My Bonnet won't open. Please help |

Hi. The bonnet on my D3 won't open properly.
Ive managed to get the driverside open but cannot get the left side out.
The bonnet release inside the car doesn't work either.
Can someone PM however to open stuck bonnet on a D3 please.
Thanks
James

hi fella,
replied to your PM about 1hr 30 mins ago ... just concerned you might not have spotted it, I know it's a pain having a (semi-)disabled car.
feedback, via PM, is always appreciated as I can improve the instructions if required.

Hi all,
Got a D3 delivered yesterday.
I know the bonnet has been open, but now won’t. N/s is loose, o/s still locked, but release doing nothing. Need to get it into garage for air on charge tomorrow, before driving to south of France on Friday.
Any assistance/ideas please.
