Why doesn't the fuel flap of the Volkswagen Polo Mk6 open?
Years 2017-2025

Answer

A problem that plagues the sixth generation Volkswagen Polo is the occasional blocking of the fuel filler flap. Unlocking is best done by an authorized mechanic to avoid the loss of the vehicle warranty. In this case it is advisable not to force the door to open as the internal parts could be damaged.
