The method to open the towing hook cover on the Sylphy: 1. Locate the towing hook position. The Sylphy's towing hook is situated at the lower part of the bumper, where the square cover is indicates the towing hook's location. 2. Press around the edges of the towing hook cover to open it. If it doesn't open easily due to prolonged disuse and tightness, use a small stick or screwdriver to pry it open. It's advisable to wrap the tool with a cloth to prevent paint damage. 3. Gently pull the towing hook cover outward to reveal the towing hook installation position. 4. After towing, remove the towing hook and reinstall the cover back to its original position.
When I first bought my car, I researched how to open the X-Trail's tow hook cover. It's located at the lower right corner of the front bumper—a small plastic cover. Simply press gently on the inner side or edge of the cover with your finger, and it will pop open or come off easily without any tools. Avoid using excessive force to push or pull, as this may scratch the paint or damage the cover. Once opened, you'll see the tow hook interface. Normally, keeping it closed helps protect against dirt and rainwater. It's advisable to regularly check if the cover's clips are loose, especially after car washes. If you encounter difficulty opening it, the clip might be stuck—just gently pry it with a flat-head screwdriver, though this isn't often necessary since the X-Trail's design is quite user-friendly. Overall, the actual operation is straightforward, and being mindful of the force applied can prevent accidental damage.
