Volkswagen Golf - Video tutorial

Model: Volkswagen Golf Golf 5, MK 5, Golf V - Years 2003-2008
Part: Outside rearview mirror
Operation: Repair outside rearview mirror

In case of breakage of only the mirror of the external rearview mirror, it is usually possible to replace only the mirror since it is a spare part that is easily available even in the after market; another extremely quick and economical solution is to superimpose a new mirror on the broken one, without removing anything: in fact, the new mirror is also available in the after market, perfectly shaped and already equipped with double-sided tape on the back: therefore clean thoroughly the surface of the broken mirror, remove the film from the back of the new mirror, align it with the broken one and apply it making it adhere correctly.

How do I unlock the fuel filler flap of the Opel Meriva B?

To be able to unlock the fuel filler flap of the Opel Meriva B when it is locked, you need to have an object that acts as a lever to be able to move the inner wheel arch cover. By inserting your hand inside, you will need to pull the latch that blocks the door from the inside, as shown in the video. The fuel flap can be opened by pulling the latch from the inside. The problem depends on the motor of the mechanism: by going to the dealership it will be possible to replace the entire piece, which will be under warranty for two years and will allow you to refuel in peace.
