If any one can shed some light on this little problem that would be
great because my poor 205 going to run out of oil soon if i cant get
bonnet up!!!
The problem is that the release lever for some reason no longer works,
the cable doesn't seem to be broken (Yanked on it with mole grips with
no success) so I cant not get the bonnet to release, if any one has any
ideas that would be great, I have the front grill off if that makes it
any easier.
Cheers

did you keep your release lubricated?what's a 205?

205, its a nice refined luxury car!!!!! something like that!!!
Ohh you should always keep your release well lubricated! Problem solved
know, get someone to sit on your bonnet and simply release by hand by
getting underneath and reaching around!

if your worried about the oil.just go under and pull plug.run engine
till it dies.no more worry!and save the runoff.that way if you ever get
the bonnet open.you can lubricate it.problem solved! toodleloo!
