How to solve the problem of the fuel tank door getting stuck on Volkswagen and Audi cars
Model: Volkswagen Volkswagen Various
In this video, we see how to remedy the issue of the fuel tank door getting stuck on Volkswagen and Audi vehicles: we remove the Torx screw located on the left side of the gasket around the door compartment, then we close the nozzle with a cloth to prevent dust or residue from mixing with the fuel. We remove the electric control of the door and open it to see how it works, using the car remote. In practice, the rotating shaft has an O-ring behind it to prevent water from entering the electrical part. This gasket, after a period of time, dries out and blocks the shaft. To solve the problem, the solution is to apply some lubricant (brake oil will work fine) on the shaft, then we move it in and out to lubricate the O-ring. This way, we will solve the problem.

How to Reset the Tyre Pressure Light on the Opel Grandland X
While driving, if you notice the tyre pressure warning light coming on, first check the actual inflation pressure of the tyres and, if necessary, restore the pressures recommended by the manufacturer. After restoring the correct pressures, you need to reset the warning light that has illuminated on the instrument cluster. To do this, locate the reset button on the lower central console. Press this button and hold it down for at least 3 seconds, after which the low pressure indication will turn off. by ScegliAuto More videos
