Berlina Hood mat?

[damoj]

Was there ever such a thing on these cars? The hood on mine reverberates, like a drum, as I am accelerating. Is this normal?

No such thing that I've ever seen. Just steel on any Berlina I've ever seen.

It's a big relatively flat piece of steel, so I'd expect it to flex. Maybe it's not sitting right on the latches?

ah, hadn't thought about that, thanks for the reply.
