What is lubricating the hood hinge all about?

The hood of a vehicle is a movable panel that covers the engine. Hinges hold the hood to the rest of the vehicle. When the hood closes, the hinges ensure that the hood latches properly in the same position each time.

Keep in mind:

  • If the hood is not latching properly or the hood no longer lines up with the position of the latch, lubrication will not sufficiently fix the problem.
  • Lubricating the hinges of the hood will make operation smoother and quieter, but will not fix any issues with the hinge’s location or physical damage.

How it's done:

  • Apply grease to the hood hinge

Our recommendation:

Any issue with the hood or hood hinges should be addressed immediately to ensure proper operation and to prevent expensive repairs in the future. By the time the lubricant or grease has worn out on the hood hinge to the point of needing replacement, it is likely that other moving points on the outside of the vehicle have suffered similar wear and tear. Inspect the latch mechanism of the hood, the hinges on the doors, and the hinges holding the trunk lid to the vehicle to assess if they could use lubrication as well. Excess friction in hinges causes them to wear out prematurely and can cause real issues down the road.

What are the common symptoms indicating you need to lubricate the hood hinge?

  • Difficulty opening or closing the hood
  • Squeaking noise when the hood is opened or closed
  • Multiple attempts required to properly close the hood
  • Hood gets stuck when opening or closing

How important is this service?

This service is moderately important and is mostly done as preventative maintenance. In extreme situations, jammed or seized hood hinges can prevent access to the engine compartment. If the issue is with the latching mechanism of the hood, then the service is more crucial. If the hood does not latch properly, there is a chance that it could open while the vehicle is in motion.

Pontiac Firebird V6-3.8L - Turn signal light is not working - Euclid, Ohio
Matt kept me apprised of his est time of arrival. Upon arriving he immediately got to work diagnosing the issue with my repair. He pointed out to me in great detail the problems of my repair, he gave me a quote and we've scheduled the actual repair for next Saturday that coincides best with my schedule. He recommended a inspection before submitting the repair. So I am very pleased with the service Matt has provided so far. I will submit an updated review next Saturday after my repair. This is my 2nd time using the "Your Mechanic" service and just like the 1st time, this service is a "Godsend" not having to spend an entire day off sitting in a repair shop and getting an accurate assessment of my repair and an affordable price. I have already referred "Your Mechanic" to my friends and family after my 1st repair with them last year. But I will keep singing their praises for as long as they keep up the level of service I've experienced so far. Thank you once again.
