Struggling to open my fuel flap on my e class convertible. Has anyone came across how to fix this please
 
OK, you started your own thread this time, now it's time to start it in the correct sub-forum?
 
Key out of car, car unlocked, push the flap in and it springs open (a bit)

Works on the coupe.....
 
It varies....

On my W203, the flap had to be pushed-in on the side where the hinges are, this caused the other side (the leading edge) to swivel out away from the car.

On my W204, the leading side (not the side where the hinges are) needs to be pushed-in slightly, there's a click and the same side (the leading edge) then pops-open.
 
Had this issue with my E class, fixed under warranty so not exactly sure what they did but I know they didn’t replace the actuator.

Used to take several prods to get it to open but has worked fine for the last couple of years.
