Re: B5 Estate Noise from Dashboard
Yes I found the cause of this problem, it was the washer water bottle and front wing attachments that were loose, it seems the last person who took the front off the car did not put all the bolts back in and as a result things were flapping about a rattling, but at the time it did seem like the nois...

Re: Cant close bonnet
No it didn't get trapped, when I took it of I gently placed it on one side so nothing got damaged, the catch lever is working ok but the bonnet will just not close down when you push on it, as it just pops back up, it was fine before, weird.

Re: B5 Part Identification
Do you have the TAPATALK app for this forum. It is really easy to reply and add pictures using that. Be interesting to see how yours is broken. I do have that part available on my car that I'm breaking if you can't repair yours. Cressa Sent from my SM-G900F using Tapatalk https://uploads.tapatalk-c...

Re: B5 Part Identification
Yes it does help thanks, if you look at part number 11 which I think is a screw, then its that part of the frame that is broken, the previous owner has put an aluminium plate on it to connect it to the wing, I don't think its repairable, ive tried to upload a picture of it with tapatalk
