I noticed that if you push down on the front bonnet (when it is already properly closed s:roll: :roll: s:roll: ), it makes metal-to-metal contact somewhere.
I can even imagine it would rattle over road bumps (there is about 3-4mm of vertical movement)...
Is this just my car, or is it normal?
Strange I have just noticed this today, after a year and a half of ownership... s:? :? s:?

on the underside of the bonnet (near the front edge)there are 2 small 12ish mm accross rubber 'stops' these scew out a bit to stop the bonnet moving down too far, if you screw these out a bit it will stop the contact you describe
s:D :D s:D Aha s:!: :!: s:!:
Just what I needed: a simple fix! s:lol: :lol: s:lol:
Many thanks indeed!
I solved this rattle by fitting a small piece of soft plastic tube over the horseshoe lug on the actual bonnet. The tube shold be slit along its lenght and secured with a little tape. Result silence!
