  1. Sadly no, which I think is the problem. To sum up what I've tried. 1. Firmly pressing in and out - nothing. 2. Locking / unlocking and trying to pry open after pressing - nothing. 3. Forcefully trying to pry open the flap - nothing and feels like the painted cover is one pull away from snapping off. 4. Frantically unlocking the car and pulling / pressing - nothing. 5. Prying open with a credit card and spraying in some WD40 near the clips - nothing 6. Giving it the good ol' whack-a-mole approach and battering it senseless. Nothing. Sure is jammed in there. Phoned the dealer up as the car is on its last 3 days of warranty to see what they can do and they don't seem overly interested so won't be kitting this drop for crappy attitude. Pretty poor design for not having a manual release somewhere. Thanks for the advice so far. Fingers crossed they can do something.
  2. Yeah, good in practise but if I can't get the damn thing open I won't be shaving anything. Tried like a bugger to get it free and nothing is shifting it. Seen a tip to try rapidly push and unlock the car so will give that a try after lunch but it feels like the flap is moving like it should but won't "unclick". I'll need to see if there's any other ways of carefully getting access. I can pull the door easily enough but feels like as if the flap is locked, same as if the car is locked.
  3. Hi all. I tried searching and couldn't see anything so clearly I'm a fool (or it hasn't been mentioned). Had a rather embarrassing experience at the petrol pump today in that my fuel flap won't open. I know they are linked to whether the car is locked or not but is there an easy way to try and get this open? I don't want to pry the flap and end up breaking the painted cover so any recommendations would be super appreciated? Has anyone come accross this issue? Thanks!
  4. Perfect! Just what I needed to hear. I wasn't sure if there were subtle differences between them in terms of the patterns. Thanks so much.
  5. Hi all. Many apologies if this has been answered. I have attempted a search for this and I have come up empty. It's entirely possible that this is somewhere already so if someone could point me towards it, this would be great. I have had my MK7 for 2 months now and I'm looking to change wheel size to 19inch. Looking online, I've noticed a lot of sites are showing 4 different models of MK7s listed. Presumably they split this into MK7/7.5, but how do I actually know what one I have? It's not a MK7.5, this I know, but why are there 4 versions listed? For example. 2.0 R 4motion (280bhp) 2.0 R 4motion (300bhp) 2.0 R 4motion (310bhp) 2.0 R 4motion (290bhp) Any thoughts? Trying to ensure I get the right wheel fitment and I am a little stumped here. Thanks in advance!
