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.
