Bonnet height
« on: September 19, 2012, 10:24:24 am »
Is there a way of adjusting bonnet height on the mk5? Since having my car back for warranty wing replacement I have noticed the bonnet doesn't sit flush with the wings. On my old mk5 fiesta there was bonnet stops that you could turn to adjust the height with. Is there a similar thing with the golf or not?

Sorted now, 2 of the 4 rubber stops are for damping only, the other 2 being for adjustment - don't screw them out too far though or they'll fall out!

I'll put the link up for info, someone on here might find it useful in the future. For the record you can also make adjustments via the bonnet catch by undoing the bolts and also you can adjust the rear of the bonnet by the screw numbered 6 on the diagram.
