Ok so today i change my oil and when i tried to close the hood it wouldnt close all the way by which it wasntlocking. the only way i got itto lock was by playing with the latch pushingit up and and down i tried greesing it but didnt work i still have to play with the latch.

 

On the grill side of the latch assy, look for 3 10mm bolts, loosen them to allow for adjustment

 

ill give it a try
