How to Unlock the Fuel Tank Door Manually in AUDI | VW| Skoda| Seat| |DIY|

[@DDodson-zl4in]

Thanks so much for your simple explanation. I was stuck at a gas station almost on empty and panicking! You saved the day!

[@homeautos]

Glad it helped!

[@rayshows1720]

My 2017 A7 coupe looks a bit different inside (you have to turn 2 black clips to the left) but I figured it out....Worked like a charm.

[@rizvitaha]

Thanks a lot man! Very helpful. I got my door stuck during a car wash and this was very helpful for my A5.

[@leonchende]

Really appreciate this video. My old Cheyenne is fixed.😅

[@Turkanian]

Thanks for this tip. Finally opened the door!

[@homeautos]

Glad it helped 🤙

[@janwesterhof1901]

Many thanks - works also for the electric door on the other side of the car

[@maciejcz250]

thank for it. Do you know how to fix it forever?

[@szenyanistvan]

I find the red cable but still not work. My fuel door a bit tifferent never opened by pressing the door itself just by pressing the button in the driver door. The dash sign is ok nothing warning come on and saying that I can refuel now after I press the button. What an annoying thing this is...I have a A3 etron 2015 Thankfully I can still run in town on battery but can not go further right now. Any advice please for me?

[@karthiknaik3944]

In my case, the spring mechanism seems to be loose. It unlocks/locks perfectly but when it is locked, it has some play but is locked

[@ednan786123]

You definitely helped me out on this one

[@xavi9933]

Does this work on Ibiza Fr tank? Cause mine is stuck can't reopen it

I was about to start breaking shit! 😂 thanks

[@kobortamas7163]

Still cant unlock it, any recommendation?

[@callmewifey9120]

Did u find it out

[@rpurnell7239]

This is such a hassle - what is this an Audi defect?? I do have enough gas to go to the dealership for this problem- ?!

[@kobortamas7163]

@@rpurnell7239 Yeah....we got to the dealership and they replaced the whole mechanism...it was pretty expensive for such a tiny fix....around 100$.

[@ritchief.5421]

I have an audi q2, I cannot see that place to find the release in the boot

[@homeautos]

Check under spare wheel section

[@ritchief.5421]

@homeautos checked everywhere, looks like it's not easily accessible

[@subashbhatta2497]

Thank you so much for your great tip sir it worked.🙏

[@Dimkazaz]

Hope will sort out my Skoda superb:)

[@darink5216]

Did it work on your Skoda?

[@187mrsmith]

Volkswagen does not have these my auddi did but not my VW

[@Mecamax]

Neither my Skoda Octavia Combi. This emergency unlock exists only on Audi

[@darkangel22628]

Neither Seat cars

[@christinebubwatson1593]

My cable does not work. Did anybody figure this out. I'm out of gas and cannot get to the dealership.

[@loveldeo1818]

Thanks for the tips man !!!!

[@NoiseMaker4U2]

Anyone with this same issue but with Seat Toledo car? Please! I'm about to run out of gas.

[@gayanpathirage7675]

Excellent tip

[@RichMayberryIV]

Okay but what if the cap is on the other side?!?!

[@mobilfone2234]

didn't work for my A6, the cable was there but didn't do anything.....

[@homeautos]

Oh It should have.. cz even for Q2 it's not there to find easily but it works once you fond the cable 🤔

[@gogobadr27]

What to do if the fuel thank door closes but doesn't lock?

[@homeautos]

Probably have to replace the lock

[@zybizybi7367]

Skoda Octavia III dont install emergency red line :(

[@johny4692]

My is not closing . Any tips ?

[@shasaleem2]

Any luck. I have a leon and having this issue

[@farahiqbal9679]

Mine still doesnt open and is still jammed

[@lewiscannon8213]

I take it you resolved you're problem with your filler door ? The reason I ask is because mine is also refusing to open up with both with key & boot pull ,

[@r-meister25]
