Installation recommendations
Generally/typically for the tank cap/cover, the replacement is simple, but it is important to check the fit, shape and possible cable/pin connections. Exact steps may vary by car model.
1) Before assembly
- Compare the new lid with the old one: shape, dimensions, attachment, hinge/axes and any cable/safety (if part of the design).
- Check the condition of the edges and locks – cracks, broken lugs and deformations can cause a poor fit.
- Verify the KMF color code if you are dealing with a shade match.
2) Necessary tools and materials
- Basic set of screwdrivers / bits (depending on the mounting design)
- Plastic pry bars for dismantling (for gentle work with body parts)
- Cleaning agent and cloth (for contact surfaces)
- Or fine lubricant for the mechanism (only if it is common and suitable for the given design)
3) Step-by-step assembly procedure
- Secure the vehicle against movement and work in a clean, well-lit area.
- Open the cover/tank area (depending on the car model) and access the lid.
- If the lid is connected by a cable or fuse, first note where it goes and where it is attached.
- Carefully loosen the lid attachment (hinge/pins/screws – depending on the specific design).
- Remove the original cap and check the butt on the body (if it is not cracked or bent).
- Clean the seating surfaces and the surrounding area so that the lid fits properly.
- Place the new cap into the mount in the same direction as the original piece.
- Secure the attachment (snaps/pins/screws) and check that the lid moves smoothly.
- If a cable/fuse is included, fasten it back and check that it is not pinching or pulling anywhere.
- Open and close the lid several times to check the fit.
-
4) Post-assembly checks and function verification
- Check that the lid holds firmly and does not open by itself.
- Verify proper fit against the bodywork (joints, fit).
- After a short ride, check again whether the attachment has loosened.
5) The most common assembly mistakes + how to avoid them
- Similar part exchange – always compare shape and fit, refer to numbers 9643083777 and 151799.
- Breaking of lugs/pins during assembly – use plastic pry bars and do not use force.
- Poor fit due to dirt – clean the mating surfaces before assembly.
- Incorrect cable/fuse routing – note the routing before disassembly and verify free movement after assembly.
Reasons why the part is damaged
- Mechanical damage (broken hinges, cracked handles) due to careless handling or impact.
- Vandalism or forced opening.
- Plastic wear and fatigue cracks due to age.
- Weather effects and UV radiation – paint fading and material degradation.
- Faulty assembly (overtightening of the attachment, poor snapping) that leads to loosening or cracking.
