Hello from Chile!
I will try to explain my problem allthough "specific parts" of a vehicle are hard for me to translate, so please be patient.
I have a XJ classic 2000 4 doors, 4.0 lt
Since a few month ago the "pull handle" to open the engine door (we call it "capot" wich I think is a french word) has become really hard. It is a big task to get it open. Handle design doesn't help either.
I have sprayed some wd40 into the clips at the front but I guess the probem is in the rubber gauge that surrounds the cable. Any suggestion to solve the problem? What is the exact point that makes it so hard to open? Is there any part to grease?
Thanks in advance
Mike
