[MR2] Unable to open engine lid

[Aaron Willis]

Well, Donald beat me to the judo chop suggestion.  Dang it!

But yes, mild violence, jarring, vibration etc may be in order here...

Wish you'd asked this before the failure mode.  Try having someone push
down 
on the cover at the latch area while pulling the release. If no luck
wrap 
your hand in a soft cloth and give the area by the latch a terrific judo

chop.

Pray.
