I had a hood release problem today. Absolutely no tension in the release handle. There was initially until I accidentally put more force than necessary and the handle just lost all tension but the hood didn't release. I was able to open the hood through the kidney grill. I took a look at the plastic box and it is kind of out of shape. Also I noticed that from the box to the latch, there is a cable that seems to be "looser" than it should be. I would take a picture, but my hood is closed now. It's a black cable that goes through a hole just over the headlight on the drivers side. Anyone know if there is a DIY or step by step on how to replace the front portion of the cable?
