This cable is a critical component of the two-stage latching system, connecting the intermediate junction connector to the two primary bonnet locks located on the front carrier.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-path-to-node=\"2\"\u003eOver time, these cables can stretch, fray, or seize due to moisture ingress and lack of lubrication, leading to a \"loose\" feeling at the release lever or, in worse cases, a bonnet that refuse to open. In the F30 generation, the system is split into multiple sections; this specific lower cable is the one that directly pulls the spring-loaded catches. If the bonnet feels difficult to pop or requires multiple pulls, replacing this cable—and ensuring the latches are clean—is the standard fix to prevent being locked out of the engine bay.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-path-to-node=\"3\"\u003e\u003cb data-index-in-node=\"0\" data-path-to-node=\"3\"\u003eVehicle Compatibility:\u003c\/b\u003e This cable is designed specifically for the \u003cb data-index-in-node=\"67\" data-path-to-node=\"3\"\u003eF30\u003c\/b\u003e and \u003cb data-index-in-node=\"75\" data-path-to-node=\"3\"\u003eF32\u003c\/b\u003e platforms and their variants:\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cb data-index-in-node=\"0\" data-path-to-node=\"4,0,0\"\u003e1 Series (F20):\u003c\/b\u003e 2014–2019\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cb data-index-in-node=\"0\" data-path-to-node=\"4,0,0\"\u003e2 Series (F22):\u003c\/b\u003e 2014–2021\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cul data-path-to-node=\"4\"\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp data-path-to-node=\"4,0,0\"\u003e\u003cb data-index-in-node=\"0\" data-path-to-node=\"4,0,0\"\u003e3 Series (F30):\u003c\/b\u003e 2012–2019 (316i, 320i, 320d, 328i, 330i, 335i, 340i)\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp data-path-to-node=\"4,1,0\"\u003e\u003cb data-index-in-node=\"0\" data-path-to-node=\"4,1,0\"\u003e4 Series (F32 \/ F36):\u003c\/b\u003e 2014–2020 (420i, 428i, 430i, 435i, 440i)\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp data-path-to-node=\"4,2,0\"\u003e\u003cb data-index-in-node=\"0\" data-path-to-node=\"4,2,0\"\u003eM3 \u0026amp; M4 (F80 \/ F82 \/ F83):\u003c\/b\u003e 2014–2020\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp data-path-to-node=\"5\"\u003e\u003cb data-index-in-node=\"0\" data-path-to-node=\"5\"\u003eSpecifications:\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul data-path-to-node=\"6\"\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp data-path-to-node=\"6,1,0\"\u003e\u003cb data-index-in-node=\"0\" data-path-to-node=\"6,1,0\"\u003ePosition:\u003c\/b\u003e Front \/ Lower (Connects Latches)\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp data-path-to-node=\"6,2,0\"\u003e\u003cb data-index-in-node=\"0\" data-path-to-node=\"6,2,0\"\u003eMaterial:\u003c\/b\u003e Steel Wire with Protective PVC Sheathing\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"MYTY Auto Parts","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":48016355197167,"sku":"512374113154","price":350.0,"currency_code":"ZAR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0769\/7183\/5631\/files\/2014-F30-3Series-Bonnet-Release-Cable.png?v=1773804791","url":"https:\/\/myty.co.za\/products\/bonnet-release-cable-lower-bmw-m3-m4-1-2-3-4-series-12-20","provider":"MYTY Auto Parts","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
