I have a 00 and have been having a problem with my drivers side headlamp. Sometimes it will come up and sometimes not. Ever since I manually opened it up one time the headlamp cover goes down and then pops back up a small amount. Also the motor assembly appears to be a little loose. Any help on getting the door to stay down flush would be much appreciated. Thanks in advance

 

Theres a very quick fix described in a TSB. It may be the cheapest mod you ever do:

Some customers may comment that the left front headlamp door does not remain closed after the headlamps are turned off. Others may comment
that the left headlamp door closes when the headlamps are turned off, but then reopens. In either case, the right headlamp door operates properly.
Correction

The following information applies to the left front headlamp door motor/actuator only. It does not apply to and should not be performed on
the right front headlamp door motor/actuator.
Install one washer (2) between the left headlamp door motor/actuator (1) and the mounting bracket (3) at each of the three attaching bolt locations. Also replace the
insulator (4) on each of the two mounting bracket travel stop tabs (5) as shown. For information on headlamp motor/actuator removal, see the Headlamp Motor/Actuator
