Solution to the problem of the fuel tank door of an Audi A6 C7 that does not open

Model: Audi A6 C7, MK 4 - Years 2011-2018
Part: Fuel cap

What solution can we find at the fuel door of an Audi A6 version C7 that does not open? We can see it in this video: obviously if the car is locked the fuel door does not open, but unfortunately it also does not open even when unlocking the central locking system; emergency unlocking from the cabin also does not work. The solution is: with the car unlocked, you have to wait exactly one minute, after which you press the remote control again near the fuel door. You will hear a series of clicks inside the door, which will unlock and allow access to the refueling nozzle.
