What solution can we find for the fuel door of an Audi A6 C7 that won't open? You can see it in this video: obviously, if the vehicle is locked, the fuel door won't open, but unfortunately, it won't open even when unlocking the central locking; the emergency release from the cabin also doesn't work.

The solution is: with the vehicle unlocked, wait exactly one minute, then press the remote again near the fuel door.

You will hear a series of clicks inside the door, which will unlock and allow access to the fuel filler neck.
