What to do if the fuel flap is blocked in the Audi A6?
Years 2011-2018

Answer

In the Audi A6 it can happen that the fuel flap locks, very often due to a fault in the actuator that controls the opening. In this case we can intervene manually from inside the boot, first of all removing the side panel. Replacing the actuator is a very simple operation and can be done without going to the workshop.
