Check Engine light and warning light on Skoda Octavia 2016: Possible error when unlocking the fuel filler flap

Hi, I had a similar problem with my 2013 Skoda Superb. The warning lights were the first signs. It turned out that it was actually the fuel filler flap release that was faulty and needed replacing, which quite surprised my mechanic. It was serious, but not a major problem, and once fixed, all was well again. I would advise you to get it checked as soon as possible. Hope this helps! Regards!

Hi, thanks for your quick reply. Interesting to hear that you had similar problems. Do you remember approximately how much the repair cost you? And has a similar problem arisen again since then or has everything gone smoothly since then? Many thanks and best regards!

Hello, the repair cost me €155.0 as apparently the cable connection or the plug on the servomotor was defective. Not exactly cheap, but since then everything has been running smoothly again and I've had no more problems in this direction - the fuel filler flap unlocking works perfectly. So better get it checked quickly so you don't start having more problems. Good luck and let us know how it goes! Bye!

I will be taking my Skoda to the mechanic tomorrow morning and hope that everything goes just as smoothly. I will let you know how it goes. Thanks again and have a great evening! Bye!
