To open the fuel flap of the Ford Focus, you do not need to press any button inside the cabin: simply apply a light pressure on the left side of the flap, where there is a circular groove. Pressing at this point will unlock the flap, allowing you to insert the pump into the vent underneath; this also does not have a cap. Once the refuelling is complete, close the flap by returning it to its original position.

How to Activate the Disabled TRC on the Toyota Yaris?

As the video clearly shows, disabling or activating the traction control (TRC or ESP) on the Toyota Yaris is very simple. By default, the traction system activates every time the vehicle is started. To disable it, simply press the button depicting a skidding car located in the centre of the vehicle where the controls are, such as the hazard lights and the radio, but near the handbrake. Once disabled, the TRC off light will illuminate on the dashboard. To reactivate it, just press the same button again.
