front end squeak

[moon buggy]

hey I'm glad I read this thread sometime back, making a mental note, hoping that our VX won't suffer 'noises'..well after driving in rain and leaving out in the rain for 2 days...squeak !! squeak !! from the f/end every little bump..my wife looked at me glearing.."Oh it'll be the bonnet".. he said knowingly ....sure enough,whilst closed I just moved it up and down a little and there it was, so I popped the bonnet /hood..saw there was a remaining dob of grease still sitting on the mechanism, so using the digit I carefully moved more of it to the 'contact' point...dropped the hood, drove on waiting for the squeak to return...silence continued...wife looks to the husband with a trusting smile ...but then as we cruised on, something catches the corner of our eye at the same time...the headlight seal has just let go and is just hangin on and is flicking around the hood like an angry snake at 80kph..damm .. pull over and adjust accordingly with closest tool ..the ignition key ;oog; ..all secured even upto 110kph test !!!.

..AHHHH ...just another day of fun brought by the VX !!

I have the same problem too. I am gonna try that silcone method for the hood stuff.

Kinda sucks how if one of us has a problem most eveyrbody else has the same.

I wouldn't view that as a problem! It's nice to know you're not alone in some cases and that we can all help each other out

Imagine if you had this huge problem and no one else was experiencing it! Where would you be then
