How to manually open the fuel door of the Volkswagen Polo

Model: Volkswagen Polo Polo 5, Polo V, MK 5, MK V, 6R - Years 2009-2017
Part: Fuel cap

In this video we can see how to manually open the cap of the Volkswagen Polo, if it gets stuck and you can't open it with just the remote control. In these cases, sometimes it takes a bit of determination, so we will need to place our left hand on the right side of the fuel door, then knock with some force, with the right hand on the left side of the fuel door. Now, lock and then unlock the car using the remote control. At this point, the fuel door will open, and we will have achieved our goal without having to dismantle anything.
