I recently purchased an '07 with 17k miles. Now that the weather is getting cooler here in the midwest, I noticed a high-pitched rattle/squeak/rubbing from the driver side toward the front. It happens at less than 40 mph. I initially thought it was one of the running boards. When I exited the vehicle and closed the driver door, the noise occured. It doesn't make the noise when I close the passenger doors, just the front doors. I then noticed it was from the front of the vehicle. I opened the hood, opened and closed the doors and the noise disappeared. I closed the took, went for a drive and the noise returned. While driving slowly in the neighborhood, I released the hood latch and the noise disappeared. My question it, what are the lubrication points within the hood assembly? Perhaps a have a loose latch? I've checked all bolts and they are tight. Any suggestions?

Thanks in advance!

There should be a couple of rubber stops near the fenders. I would adjust the one closest to the squeak to raise it up a bit and support the hood better.

Welcome to CA hernamf!

Double check the bolts on your hood supports also.

Thanks! I adjusted the stops and I also greased the latch assembly where contact is made between the hood and latch. That did the trick. No more noise.

I really like this forum.

Thanks to POPS for the DVD installation info. Mine went super smooth. The only difference is that I installed my player in the 2nd row center console.

Cheers!
