Got the "Hood Open Lite" warning. The hood is closed and latched on both sides. I can find no reason for the warning. With the hood open and looking at the latches it is not obvious as to what is wrong. There must be an adjustment somewhere. Can someone please help me?

Thanks guys

 

It is the convertible top that is not latched, not the engine cover. The engine cover is the 'bonnet' on a British car.

 

The convertible top was retracted. But after I wrote this thread I raised the top and the warning went away. Thanks for the info. Let's see....Hood is bonnet.... trunk is boot... conv top is hood!!!! Right??

 

And don't forget fender is wing.

And all jaguar electrics are in the process of failing, its just some haven't got there yet.

 

Now where'd I put that damn spanner and torch?!

 

And lite is something that is not heavy and a light is something that illuminates.

Ware is a material i.e Kitchen ware and Wear is something that is damaged or worn.

 

And Ware is a place in Hertfordshire too, 😏

everyone confused now?!

 

Ohh don't get me started on color and colour, not to mention center and centre.

 

Boy, what an education! And I thought I knew the English language (now, did I say that right, or is it rite or write?) Keep it up guys. This is fun!

 

How about tyre and tire?

 

tire is tyre

 

And.........Pants is trousers.......rotors is disks.......gas is petrol....
chemist is a drug store......there must be more

and so on The American version seems to be the lazier way of spelling. (that should kick the wasps nest, or should I say yellow jackets?)

 

Most importantly its al-u-min-i-um not alu-min-um

 

No one has mentioned yet the greatest sin of them all. How you Americans pronounce Jaguar. Its NOT pronouced Jag War or Jag wor it is Jag-you-are.

 

only thing that matters!

 

I say old chap, that's a bit harsh, lol. Important thing is that they are into the old Jags same as we are, think we can forgive a bit of mispronunciation, they can't help it after all.

 

Got to love it!
