Lubricate your hood hinge pivot pins !!!
This is important...
Lubricate your hood hinge pivot pins !!! A few drops of oil will save you from a costly repair. The W123 hood hinge generally corrodes/seizes on the bottom pivot wrecking the arm and/or ripping the pivot bushing from the body. The W123 hood hinges are currently $300.00 each. The W126 have multiple pivot points to seize = bend/twist/deform, and the fender must be removed to replace the hinge. The W126 hood hinges are currently $368.00 each. If you need NEW hinges, please call Phil with your VIN#.. .

What type of lubricant?
Do you recommend a light oil or a grease compound?
