So I went and picked up a new cable (dee dee dee).

Anybody else have there's break prematurely? Parts guy said they break all the time in the 7th gens.

Hmm.

 

mine stopped working for like 4 months and then started again

 

Okay I'm going to give this fueldoorfix thing a shot, I just ordered one. If it works I'll return the cable assembly.

 

wow, that's all you have to do? seems simple, thank goodness i haven't had any problems with mine.

good luck on yours acurafanatic

you can pry it open with your car key, just wrap it in a papper towel.

a cloth of some sort?

 

Well I can get to it by pulling 3 panels, a cover plate, and like one screw, so worse comes to worse I'll just disassemble it again and drive around with it taken apart til I get the part.

If this works, it's probably not a bad idea to have if you're not under warranty. They sell 5 of these fix it clamps for like $60 something dollars. It's $23.25 shipped for one, be a good group buy item.

$12 insurance policy against a cable assembly that costs over $100 and will probably fail at some point in your car.

 

its not gonna damage ur fuel door. its a pos that can be pryed open with a ****** nail

just wrap ur car key in paper and stick it in teh grove and pop it out. ive been doing it for 5 months and have maybe like 2 nicks in the paint that touch up takes care off

Hey, if you ever lock your keys in the car, just take a crowbar and wrap it in a paper towel. Your door will pop right open.

 

well when you run out of gas and cant open your gastank you can wait for AAA who will come with a crow bar and open it for you wihout asking questions.
