I can't open my bonnet

[LisaPuma123]

Silly question i know but im young and a girl

I can't open my bonnet and my water light has come on.. anyone know how to open it does it push up or go to the side?

there's a red flap under the steering wheel, pull it

Middle of the grill at the front of the car, just under the bonnet there's a yellow flap, move that to one side...lift bonnet

Yeah i know how to pop it its just i cant actually open. maybe im too little and just dont have the strength!

Aha - will attempt this when i get home from work and will let you know how i get on, i have tried pushing it to one side yet, i thought that it was a a pull up kind of jobby. Thanks

I've tried pulling it straight up but that doesn't seem to work, others seem to say to slide it to one side?

Haha im not that weak - Its just getting it to uncatch if you see what i mean? or am i confusing you?

Thats what im having the problem with x

Hi!
Your bonnet might be stuck ! Mine was sticking. You need another person to just lift it till you can get to the catch while the lever is pulled.

Oh i see, Well i'll try again when i get home and if not i will enlist some helpers to see if i can get this sorted.

Thanks for your help guys
