Fuel filler flap unsprung
Hi All,
Whilst my fuel filler flap locks and unlocks with the central locking it doesn't spring open when you press it . You have to place something thin in the gap and gently pull it open.
Yup, mine was the same on purchase, the spring part gets knocked off quite easily, parts were no more than £2 and a 30 second fixI started off with nothing and Ive still got most of it left.
....Back of the car & the place where the thing that passses for a jack is stored allows access to the cable that provides the central locking aspect can be disconnected (easily)
The is allows you to see how simple the mechanism is & is useully fixable.
Have a look......there isnt that much to go wrongBREXIT - done properly.
Right now ...We need Government - not Politics
Save the Dipstick Flagbearer-keep it simple, less likely to fail campaign-agenda items:Starting Handles, Acetylene Lamps.

You usually need:
1 x ARV78020 bezel
1 x CAL500070 boot.
this clips on the flap part.
