1 Answers
The reasons why the fuel filler cap of Audi Q3 cannot be opened may include the following points: 1. The fuel filler cap cable has fallen off: You can open the trunk, and there will be an inner trim panel on the side of the fuel filler cap that can be opened. Usually, there are only a few plastic clips on it. After opening it, you can see the long cable that operates the fuel filler cap. Just pull it. If it doesn’t work, try moving the movable parts of the locking mechanism while pulling the cable. 2. The fuel filler cap spring has lost its elasticity: You can install a small spring on the protruding rubber pad of the fuel tank yourself to increase the elasticity between the fuel filler cap and the locking device. 3. The fuel filler cap hinge or latch is aged: You can apply lubricating grease to the hinge and latch of the fuel filler cap for lubrication.
