Bonnet adjustment

laphil1022 · 08-16-2021, 01:18 AM

The bonnet of my X1 (F48, 2020 made) has recently been replaced due to a minor crash. I notice the gap between the bonnet and the front bumper is slightly wider on its left side; it seems like the left side of the bonnet is positioned slightly higher. Any suggestions on how to adjust it? I was able to find the videos on bonnet adjustment for other models but not X1 (F48). Thanks!

Open the bonnet. Simple adjustment of the U shaped components (1 each side) on the underside of the bonnet which lower into the clamping mechanism. One nut on each U, easily adjusted with an adjustable spanner.
