How to Confirm Fitment Before Ordering
1. Confirm the body
Your vehicle must be an Audi A4 or S4 two-door Cabriolet with 8H body/chassis identification. It must not be a saloon or Avant.
2. Confirm petrol specification
The photographed cap and label are for an unleaded-petrol vehicle. Diesel buyers should not order the complete assembly without verification.
3. Compare the photographs
Compare the painted flap outline, hinge position, rear moulding, cap, tether and mounting points against your existing part.
4. Check the old part
Look for 8H0809905, 8H0 809 905 or a superseding reference. Do not rely only on an automatically generated eBay compatibility result.
5. Send details through eBay
When uncertain, contact us through eBay Messages with the registration, VIN, engine size and a clear photograph of the current component before purchasing.
6. Confirm colour separately
Black is a broad colour description, not a verified paint code. Compare your paint code or plan to repaint the flap.
What the Fuel Flap Assembly Does
The assembly closes the opening in the rear quarter panel, protects the filler neck from dirt and weather, provides a finished exterior surface, and retains the fuel cap and tether shown in the photographs.
The painted flap itself does not regulate fuel delivery or control the engine. A separate central-locking actuator may secure the flap on equipped vehicles. That actuator is not assumed to be included unless it is clearly visible in the actual item photographs.
Common reasons for replacement
- Broken, bent or seized hinge.
- Flap missing following impact or previous repair.
- Flap will not remain closed or sits out of alignment.
- Cracked or detached petrol-cap tether.
- Damaged cap or deteriorated sealing surface.
- Heavy scratches, dents, corrosion or peeling paint.
- Poor panel gap after accidental damage.
- Fuel-cap warning or emissions warning where the cap seal is damaged; diagnosis is recommended because the outer flap alone will not normally trigger an engine fault.
Why Choose a Used Factory Part?
Correct factory shape
A manufacturer-produced component is designed around the vehicle’s original body aperture, hinge location, panel contour and cap arrangement.
Better matching potential
The correct original component generally provides a more dependable starting point for panel alignment than an inexpensive universal or poorly reproduced copy.
Lower replacement cost
Used components can cost substantially less than a comparable new replacement. Depending on the component and current new price, savings may sometimes approach 70%; savings are not guaranteed for every item.
Environmental benefit
Reusing an existing component extends its service life and reduces demand for new manufacturing, packaging and raw materials.
Fitting Guide
Recommended tools
- Plastic trim-removal tool.
- Suitable Torx-driver set.
- Small ratchet and sockets where required.
- Protective cloth and low-tack masking tape.
- Work light.
- Protective gloves.
General fitting procedure
1 Park safely, switch off the ignition and open the existing fuel flap.
2 Clean the surrounding quarter panel and protect the painted edge with a cloth or low-tack tape.
3 Photograph the original hinge, tether, fasteners and actuator arrangement before dismantling.
4 Release the cap tether and any trim or retaining components that obstruct access. Do not pull wiring or the locking actuator.
5 Support the flap while carefully removing its retaining screws or hinge fasteners using the correct driver.
6 Compare both assemblies side by side. Confirm the hinge, mountings, cap, tether and flap outline are identical before continuing.
7 Transfer only the required serviceable components, fit the replacement and initially leave the fasteners slightly loose.
8 Align the flap with the surrounding quarter-panel contour and tighten the fasteners carefully. Do not overtighten plastic or painted components.
9 Check that the flap opens, closes and locks correctly without rubbing. Confirm the petrol cap seals and the tether is secure.
10 Remove protective tape, clean the area and recheck the panel gap after operation.
