Hood Shake

Last week I brought my '03 in for the hood shake that many of us have experienced, when I got the car back and took it on the highway the hood seemed to move a little bit, but not as much as before. For the people who have had this problem fixed has it completely eliminated the hood movement or just made it better?

It is no longer noticeable on my car. Maybe it just needs to be tightened more.

I had mine done in Tampa FL. Ferman. The hood still shakes at 60+. I have an 01' SE. I have had my car in 9times for repair in 2 yrs. Wind noise,hood vibrtion,front right wheel bearing three times,blown MAF,slow a** windows,clock didn't work upon P/U,brake jutter twice. The only good thing I can say is the work performed was free. In the cars defense; I rode it HARD. Taking that into consideration-still too many issues for a repeat buy. Good luck with your Nissan service adventure!
