Hood won't open when warm on GT2

Any suggestions here would be great. My hood has trouble releasing when the motor is warmed up on my GT2. Once it cools off all is ok. Is there an adjustment I can make? Firing blanks here.

ya it's not a 'easy' listing, in the exterior>body section and scroll through...I also checked PET which makes it easy
mine work perfectly but have been thinking about preventatively replacing the sometime soon, I spend enough time working on cars, last thing I want is wasting time hacking around for the emergency release lol

Seems like on the diagram there are 2 actuators...1 on either side. Am I reading it wrong?
