Video tutorial

In this video, we can see how to replace the fuel cap of a BMW 3 series E90 version: in this case, the plastic string that holds the cap when opened is broken and it is much better to replace it to avoid it falling to the ground once opened. We can easily find it, for example, on Amazon with the code B0B2P7NBJB at a price of 19.99 euros; free delivery.

First, we remove the damaged strap, then we remove the cap to be replaced, reattach the hook of the new cap and put the new cap in its place, tightening it well, and now it will be safe when we open the door.
