Help with replacement hood motor

Post by PHILGZ4 » Thu May 16, 2019 1:24 pm

I have already had my motor moved to the boot last year and was working great but it now need's a wee push when it opens then works fine rest of the way.It closes perfectly.
Does anyone think this could be the hydraulic oil is low?. Going to snip the cable tie and check it this weekend as it's been put in pretty tight and cant get to the top up bit as its facing the rear seat. i did find some oil on a piece of paper towel i put underneath it so could it be leaking or would this be the WD40 that was sprayed on it?. failing this a wee day trip to Durham and contact Dave.

Forget the above !
I've just realised that the OP was some time back and Cheryl is picking up on an old thread !
(I'll still message Bowser (Ross) for you though)
