I've owned a bunch of 240's and have always had trouble with the latch and cable. I have to pull the cable, get out of the car to open the hood, then get back in and PUSH the cable so I can close the hood and it will latch. Well, on this cable I could barely get it to pull open and now I can't push it in to latch. I took out the latch and soaked it up with WD40 and put it back to no avail. Just exactly where is the holdup on this, where do I lubricate, and does the cable ever just need replacing? Thanks! Gary.
