Hood flutter at highway speed — adjustment

Tags: #hood

The hood (капот) can exhibit flutter or a wave-like motion at highway speeds, especially when passing large trucks. This is typically not a serious safety issue but indicates loose hinge adjustment 12. Fix: have an official FAW dealer adjust and tighten the hood hinges, and check the perimeter weatherstripping/seals (уплотнитель) around the hood 3. If only vibration occurs without visible hood movement ("petaling"), the cause may be primarily the seal, which may need replacement or repositioning 4.
