So my engine deck lid is rubbing on the trunk on the passengers side. It wasn't like this until recently. Anyone have any ideas what is causing it and how to fix it?

Check the engine lid hinge on that side to see if the weld has pulled loose, or bent or deformed; if not there then check th spring bars etc. to see which is wanky.

yes check the hinge under the lid right forward just below the rear window firewall. Hope the bolt is just loose and not the usual broken L bracket attached to
the firewall. |
