Im not sure if this should be here or the workshop. Ive got an astra j that the fuel filler cap wont unlock on. Has anyone got any idea if there is any other way to open it until i get chance to get it fixed?

Ive tried google but cant find anything and cant find anything in the car even to access it.

If its like the older Astra and Cavalier, you can get to the lock from inside the boot, pull the carpet back or open the access flap to get at the lock, the older ones let you pull the lock pin through manually. You might have to unbolt it to get it open.

Cheers for the help, I've dropped it off at a garage and apparently they have to through the wheel arch to get in. I don think even they were too sure.
