hey all
just wounderring if any one can help, my bonnet release clip on the inside of my van (berlingo) is not broken and the wire is still attached but when i pull it, it feels loose and does not release the catch on the bonnet, so i'm guessing the wire is off at the other end near the release catch. i've looked under the car and can release the clip that you would have to open once the catch is off but thats no good. ANYONE?? able to help here?
