Hood movments

[gural]

Dear All

Lastly i have noticed that when i am going with some higher speeds I see (or got the feeling) that my hood is moving / vibrating
and as fare i go i see it every time
it is a very unplasant feeling

I read on Mustang forum (expedition in my country is not in offical sale - so it is rather rare car) that those big hood have it like that and it is normal...

Do You have it also??

Yes it does. It adds no structural rigidity, it is as thin and light as possible, so at higher speeds, and/or windy days, it tends to vibrate slightly.

Yes, that's the way they're made. Been discussed on here for years. Wait until you pass a semi going the other way on a two lane road, each going 60 mph. You'll be amazed it doesn't come open or fly off.

Open the hood, there's two contact points, one on either side, that touch the hood. You can rotate them (threaded stud) higher to lessen the hood vibration.

To ease your mind, ny dads 22 escalades hood does the same.

Wait til u get it on the highway and have wind gusts and semi's. It looks like it might fly off.

I go 85 on a long stretch of highway that's posted 75, and some sections could use a re-paving; never detected even the slightest hood vibration.

I notmally travel anywhere from 65 to 150 mph on the highway and have never felt or see any hood vibrations
