How to Replace the Fuel Filler Flap on an Audi A2

Model: Audi A2 MK 1 - Years 1999-2005
Part: Fuel cap

If the motor or button that allows you to conveniently open the fuel filler flap is damaged, you can still refuel your tank. You can access the opening system parts without any problems; simply open the boot to remove the cover with the grille on the right side of the glove compartment. This way, you have access to the lever that will allow you to open the flap in question and subsequently access the parts you need to replace to restore the system's functionality.
