Fuel flap not locking
Hi Guys
Just looking for some advice...
We collected are 2013XS yesterday and are loving it but I noticed today that the fuel flap isn't locking when the car is locked. I have left the flap open and locked the car and there isn't anything moving inside the fuel cap area. Am I correct that i should see a small pin / rod moving out to lock the flap?
If this has been broken can anyone tell me the part I need to replace and how to fit it please? I am fairly certain I can hear something engaging behind the fuel cap area of the bodywork (like an actuator)
Any advice gratefully received

Take the jack access cover off and have a look at the cable assembly. I had this problem: the cable had somehow come out of it's locating bracket and was flopping around in space. Ten seconds work and it was all fine once more. Dead easy fix, assuming you have the same issue...
