Took mine in today for the MHEV recall and had reported the flap when I booked it in.

Not exactly sure what they did, but now it fits!

@scrumps - did you ever get yours sorted?

@JDPRRSUK That looks much better. Do you know if it's a replacement, or did they make some adjustments?

Mine has been in for this, I’ve been told it needs a spare that is on back order and could be months.

JDPRRSUK,

I should get mine back on Weds (from some other work) with a new, correctly painted flap.

We’ll wait & see!😀

Your looks good - new or “tweaked”?

Looking at my flaps again today I think they've gone the other way and have actually improved a little. Still not perfect, but better than they were. All very odd.

Mine is the original. Not sure what they did but huge improvement..

Mine was at the dealer in Motherwell yesterday to sort out the squeaking roof lining around rear view mirror (which they sorted) I pointed out the two filler flaps alignment issues to the techy chap who said mine were better than most. He said he could have a go with a heat gun but it could make it worse. Decided to leave it - its not that bad - so far (collected 23 December and done 1600 miles) 2024 Firenza Red P460e Dynamic SE

JDPRRSUK,

Car is back with new colour coded flap fitted.

Alignment much improved and colour match is perfect!

Here endeth the saga! (I hope).

Picked mine up and thanks to the forum looked for the fuel flap alignment, and it was slightly askew. Technician had a go at adjusting it and improved the line up. But they have ordered a new mechanism….
