Ok??? not sure what the dealer is on about. I think you need first to establish that when you pull the lever on the floor the pin comes out. Do this with the flap open (you may need someone to pull the lever while you watch it. If the pin does come out then look at the back of the flap to see what the pin push's onto. On mine it was line a small 90 degree bracket as part of the moulding. It was still attached (just about) however when you pushed on it, it just folded in as it was only hanging on by a thread. I tried gluing it but it would not glue - hence I needed a new one. the part you want is the oblong flap that covers the fuel filler. It is moulded plastic and will need painting as mine did.

Hope this helps

Robin the Technician - I fix, therefore I am

hi all

finally done cannot believe it so much headache for this liitle thing.

so i was "lucky " after 2 months i was able to fix it,i didn`t need to buy a new flap because i looked over and over again if any litte part is broken or something but were all fine,then checked the trigger inside of car so i pulled it and the little pin moved as it should but did not flip out a flap.

so the mechanic put a little plastic on top of left hand corner screw that hold a bit firm the flap but not out too much,and guess what ,when tried the trigger it WORKED!!

i couldn`t believe it and it still good cannot see anything i mean not look nasty or doggy because a little plactic covers a one of the screw.

for me this was a result because once again i had nothing broken from flip but anyone else might have other broken parts there but you can see those.

hope that help for some of you,guys

thanks
