2020 Macbook Air m1 - Hinge Adjustment?

[A4orce84]

As the subject states, after 5 years the hinges on my 2020 MBA are feeling a bit loose. Is there a good writeup or video on how to tighten everything back up?

Thanks in advance to everyone for your time and help, it is greatly appreciated!


Thanks,
Asif

You could remove the bottom cover, and check the hinge screws for tightness.
These steps from the good iFixit web site should help you with the location of the hinge screws. (Scroll down to step 13) They are torx T8 size. You won't need to remove the screws first, just check for tightness!
DON'T over-tighten, just get the screws "snugged" down, checking to see if any excess movement has stopped. Hopefully, that is all you need to do.
