My bonnet catch is vibrating on the right hand side. Is there an easy solution to this?

Bonnet catch

You don't say what year model you have.
If the earlier model then best solution is to replace the bump stops with the later spring loaded version. Much better and solve the problem immediately

Do you have a link to the part. I have 2006 model
No I don't - just look under the bonnet and see what you have.

You want the latest drop into a BMW dealer. They cost me near nothing.

Thanks . I sorted it last night. Only took me 3 hours. I couldn't get the rubber screws to move

All the way mate. I had to turn mine almost 5 times to get it to shut flush.

On my car they were really difficult to get started . I put my hand underneath the left rubber screw and pushed it up as I was turning.

I only bought it 2 months ago. I can tell that the previous owner has tried to fix this as there was some damage on one of the screws. If the screws are all the way out they should be about an inch high and the bonnet would be raised .

They don't seem to have lifted the bonnet at all tbh, and now they don't seem to screw back down
