The Volkswagen Jetta, like many cars, has an automated fuel door opening. In this type of car, there is no button or lever to open the fuel door, as we simply need to keep the vehicle unlocked to open the door and refuel.

If the vehicle is locked, the central locking system will not allow the fuel door to open. To open the fuel door, we simply need to press on it and then unscrew the fuel cap to refuel.

To close the fuel door, just press on it.
