How to open the fuel tank door of the VW Golf 7?

Model: Volkswagen Golf Golf VII, MK 7, Golf 7 - Years 2012-2019
Part: Fuel cap

The fuel tank flap on a Volkswagen Golf mk7 model vehicle can only be opened from inside the car, in fact pressing the flap itself will make it impossible for you or others to open it. To open the flap, we must press the button on the side panel, behind the steering wheel; once the button is pressed, we can open the flap, remove the cap, and refuel. To close it, simply push it back in. This type of centralized opening and closing was introduced by Volkswagen to prevent fuel theft.

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.
