Adjusting the hood (Nissan Terrano 1)

1. Correct adjustment of the hood is necessary to prevent odors from the running engine from entering the passenger compartment through the air intake grille. The hood is adjusted horizontally by moving the hinge bolts in the grooves. In the vertical direction, the hood is adjusted by rotating the rubber buffers in the radiator bracket and the dovetail bolt, which is part of the hood lock.

2. To adjust, outline the loop whose position will change.

3. Loosen the bolts and carefully move the hood to the desired position. Tighten the bolts, lower the hood and check its position.

4. Loosen the lock nut of the dovetail bolt on the lock and check the adjustment of the hood at the front. After adjustment, tighten the lock nut.

5. If necessary, you can adjust the position of the retainer relative to the hood lock. To do this, outline the contours of the lock screws, loosen the screws and set the retainer in the desired position. Tighten the screws.

6. Adjust the hood by rotating the rubber buffers so that the hood surface is flush with the fenders.

7. Lubricate the lock and hinges.
