  Q: How should the hood be removed and installed properly on Nissan Rogue?

  A: The hood is rather massive and does not come off or install easily-it might be cumbersome to do this alone, so a minimum of two people will be needed. It can be started by using the blanket or the pad to cover the region of the cowl together with the Fenders so that the paint will not get damaged. Scribe or make marks around the hood hinge so as to help in alignment when shall be putting it back in place, and of any cables or wires that could hinder the removal process. stand thus with an assistant on the other side of the hood, and then unscrew the hinge to hood nuts while the shoulder holds the hood. Lift off the hood, and for installation reverse the above said steps such as, removing the bolts of engine hood. For the adjustment purposes the fore and aft position and, side to side position can be concurrently moved by shifting the hinge plate slot after loosening the bolts or nuts. Draw a line around the hinge plate to mark the movement, and then release the bolts/ nuts and align the hood properly, finally,screw the hinge bolts. If needed the complete Hood Latch assembly can be shifted up & down and side to side on the radiator support to get a good closure of the hood, and a good fit against the side fenders. Place a mark around the hood latch mounting bolts for even reference, then free the bolts, adjust the position of the hatch assembly if necessary, and torque the bolts again before carrying out a proper fit test. At last, the setting of the hoods Bumpers located at the ends of the radiator support should be adjusted in a way to bring the hoods effectively in line with the fenders once closed, as well as the lubing of the hood latch assembly and the hinges with white lithium-base grease to reduce binding and wear should be done occasionally.
