The ability to scan your car really does pay dividends in situations like these, is there anyone in your area with VCDS?

The battery full topped?

I had to break my fuel flap open once when i was driving in europe and desperate for fuel  :sick: The release mysteriously started working again later in the day. Quite easy to pull open, but it snaps the clip that locks the flap in place  :surprised:
