I was driving down a dual carraige way today at around 70mph, it was a little windy too and all the time the bonnet was lifting/wobbling slightly. I've never noticed this before (done nearly 8,000 miles).
The bonnet is seems to be shut properly. There is a little play if you push down on the front edge of the bonnet (about 4mm play). Anyone else experienced this?
It didn't look good. At the same time my wipers were getting on my t**s making their knocking noise and juddering. I was starting to wonder if my first Land Rover was starting to show it's true colours! Matt

I seem to remeber tim in scotland having this problem, and had the catch adjusted at the dealers. Its out there somewhere. Second V10 Treg on the drive at the moment.

dont' bother taking it to the dealer. I had the same thing happen, just open up the hood/bonnet, or whatever you call it, and shut it again. You'll be able to tell if it's shut by pulling up on the hood. Works like a charm RRS S/C Special Edition, Vesuvius

I haven't had this issue while driving but have noticed that I've had to "reseat" the bonnet once or twice when putting it back down. The bonnet itself does seem a little flimsy and it seems very easy to bring it off course as you close it - just lifting and re-closing a little more accurately seems to do the trick. Not sure if this is the same issue as when you're driving along though.

Its a D3 problem too my parents one has been mended twice

Mine done the same on the near side. For some reason it came loose on the catch (there's one either side). I just opened and gave it a good old slam. Never budged since.

Ditto. Noticed it the other day with some alarm. Pulled over, released the bonnet, gave it slam. Fixed. -QM

Tried slamming it a few times. I will try again. Matt

Yep Autocar's test supercharged RRS's bonnet lifted at 140 mph casuing them to slow down rather rapidly................. I emailed them and said I had had the same problem at somewhat less than 70. I haven't had the dealer do anything yet as the best cure so far has been to close the bonnet then give an extra press on the nearside (passenger side) to make sure it is fully latched down. 2020 Pangea Green 1st Edition D240 New Defender 110 is here and loving it

I have not had this but when checking the oil have had to make a concerted effort to push each side latch down firmly to ensure it closes. L319 D4 HSE
