Hood Rattling?
I've recent discovered that my hood will rattle above certain RPM.
Initially, I couldn't find where did the rattle sound came from. I check all the usual suspects. Fire wall brace, engine mount etc but to no avail.
Last week when I was washing the car, I felt the hood area on my driver side has 1/4" play. It is securely latched on but I can push down that part of the hood and viola; the rattle sound is exactly that I've been hearing for months. It's about 1 feet below the vin plate on the windshield in the direction towards the headlight.
I tried the right side of the hood, but it has no play and no sound.
Is there any kind of adjustment that I can play with? It seems to me that part of the hood is not being push back up properly or something is loose and needs to be tighten up.
TIA.
