Hood Support Bar 2018View24D
This was a surprise to me. On the '17 Sprinter chassis the hood support bar is on the left, you just open the hood and the bar falls into a slot to hold it open. To close you just push the bar out of the slot and lower the hood. Well, early one AM I opened the hood just as many times before, added the DEF, and pushed the latch to close it. Oops! Bent the support bar in half. I had to manually bend the thing with hands to close the hood. It works but not very well now. When I get home will remove the thing and straighten it/repair it or replace it.
For those with a like rig pay attention when you close the hood and hold that bar open until hood starts moving down clearing that latch slot on the bar
