What did you search to discover the fix to the hood not popping but the release motor is moving? I searched for "hood" in the thread titles, scrolled/read through 6 pages to 2007, but didn't find an exact remedy other than spraying WD-40 on the latch mechanism, in other threads folks with my similar problem said this didn't work either.

I know I can get in using the emergency cable, but I don't just want in once. I want the hood to pop electronically, every time I pill the switch on the door sill / push the key fob.

Has anyone replaced or had to replace the hood unlocking motor? If the motor is making noise every time but the hood only pops 70% of the time, might this be something else?
