went to fill my car up this morning as the fuel was very low, 15 miles to go on the info panel, the lowest i've taken it. anyway, get to the petrol station and the filler cap cover won't open. i assume its frozen so the kind people at the station give me a bucket of warm water to try a thaw it out but it still didn't open. i didn't now what to do so i then had to drive home again, a very tense drive.
anyway, when at home i found the manual release behind the lower rear light panel.
The problem is it seems to close when i lock the car using the fob but wont open with the fob.
does this sound like the solenoid has had it, or just playing up in the cold weather?
anyone had similar issues with the filler cap cover?
