How to open the fuel cap on Audi TT

Model: Audi Tt MK 1, 8N - Years 1998-2006
Part: Fuel cap

We unlock the Audi TT's refueling flap if we can't open it. To begin with, we open and lift the tailgate with a special key or button. We uncover the plastic cover on the side of the luggage compartment, then, we arrive at the motor for opening the fuel flap. With our hands we grab the plastic rod of the motor (cable) and pull it to the right to unlock the lock, vice versa to lock it (if present on the model). We unlock the fuel flap. After unlocking the door, we remove the damaged motor / door with a new one of the same type.
