Stuck Bonnet
Hi, I've seen many posts on the same problem. Can't open the bonnet on my just purchased ZT, the cable release is very slack and won't open the bonnet. Need to get in there because the gauge says it's overheating (seen many posts on that too!) I understand that it's a security issue, but if someone would be kind enough to PM and let me know how to get in there would be extremely grateful.
Cheers Andy |

Bonnet Problems
Whatever steps you have to take to get the bonnet open, before closing it again make quite sure you have backed off just very slightly the bolts holding the bonnet catches to the slam panel (2 each side)
