Hey there Jane. Welcome :) :y

84/ Swedish girlfriend. Respect ;)

The flap is open (unlocked when the car's unlocked). Maybe he's tried to fill up with the car locked at the garage :-/

Hi Jane and welcome. :)

The petrol flap opens when you unlock the car and locks when you lock it, unless the petrol flap solenoid has packed up, if thats the case he will have to pull the flap down inside the bootjust behing the petrol flap and release it manually. By the way, does you dads swedish girlfriend have any mates ::)
