Skoda Karoq Fuel Filler Problem

Anyone else had trouble with the fuel filler on their Skoda Karoq? Mine's a 2023 model, gasoline engine. The fuel filler flap just won't open anymore. I cannot lock or unlock the fuel filler flap. Plus, some other functions seem to be unavailable now. Guessing it might be the electric actuator or something? I suspect an electrical fault.

That sounds like a pain. I had a similar issue with my old Renault Megane a few years back. The fuel filler door wouldn't open sometimes. Was there an error message?

Yeah, there's an error stored in the memory. Did yours also affect other functions of the car? It's weird, but some things aren't working as they should.

Yep, error message plus the door wouldn't budge. Nothing else was affected in my case, but it does sound like a similar electrical fault. Best get it checked out, could be a defective linkage. Probably needs a new electric actuator.

Took it to the workshop and you were right, it was the electric actuator link that had failed. Cost me 210€ to get it sorted. Thanks for your help!
