This may seem strange - Well, it is to me ... I have a mystery here; I discovered my hood kind popped/rotated up this morning near the passenger side window. I don't know how, when, or what the heck happened ... Had the truck in the dealer last week having a leak in the manifold fixed. It wasn't like that before I brought it in. Greg brought it (straight) home, and it has only been parked out of the garage once; Yesterday, for 5 hours. Neither one of us noticed until this morning .... Probably a stupid question ... Maybe someone sat on it? Or tried to pry at it? (why there?)

This one really has me shaking my head ... (and no, I wasn't drinking and driving - haven't hit a thing).

Here are a couple of pics, first ones are of the right passenger side ... (second is of the left driver's side ....)

Passenger side:

Driver side:

Any ideas? Thanks,

Kim

When they were working on your truck they may have taken the hood off and didn't line it up right when they put it back on. Or they left the hood propped up on the hood stand thing and it warped your hood. I'd take it back and ask them to fix/readjust it.

kim -

you should adjust the left side to look the same - this will acually help the car run cooler in the desert...

could be a blessing in disguise.

Kim,
It increases the downforce so your Disco can handle better. It works similar to how the DiscoWeb sticker helps with Gas mileage, Ground Clearance, and flex.

only works on left turns.

that shouldn't be an issue as three lefts make a right.
