About part number LK7227936CC

A fuel filler flap is an exterior body panel mounted on the rear of the vehicle that covers and protects the fuel cap and filler neck. Connected to the bodywork via a hinge mechanism, it keeps dirt, water, and road debris away from the fuel inlet while maintaining the smooth, aerodynamic profile of the car. When working correctly, it sits flush with the surrounding body panel and latches securely, opening easily when the driver releases it to refuel.

To ensure this is the correct part for your vehicle, you must match the engineering part number directly. Check the back or inner edge of your existing unit for the code LK7227936CC, which is typically stamped or printed onto the surface. Matching this exact part number is the only way to guarantee a correct fit, as vehicle models and production years are not a reliable guide to compatibility.

A fuel filler flap is usually replaced due to accidental impact damage, broken hinges, a snapped retaining catch, or cosmetic wear and tear. When replacing this component, you may also need to transfer or replace the mounting hinge, the locking actuator, or the rubber seal that sits behind the panel to ensure proper alignment and weatherproofing.

About this kind of part: fuel filler flaps

A fuel filler flap is the small painted door over the filler neck, with its hinge and usually a spring or a damper behind it. On an electric or a hybrid car the same part covers the charging socket and is often larger and electrically released. It is painted to match the body, which is why it is replaced far more often than it fails: the flap sits where people lean, and it is one of the few painted parts a careless hand touches every week.

Why people replace one

  • The flap has been creased or dented, usually by being pushed shut against the filler cap or by a knock at a pump.
  • The hinge has broken or the spring has failed, so the flap no longer stays shut or no longer stays open.
  • The paint has faded or the lacquer has lifted, which shows badly because the flap sits in the middle of a large flat panel.
  • The release mechanism or the electric actuator has failed and the flap no longer opens from inside the car.
  • A rear quarter panel has been repaired and the original flap was damaged in the process.

Fitting it

  • Most flaps unbolt from the hinge inside the filler recess, sometimes with the hinge as one assembly and sometimes as a separate part.
  • On a car with an electric release, the actuator and its loom stay with the car and the flap comes off on its own.
  • The seal or the foam around the recess is worth checking at the same time, because it is what stops water collecting in the bottom of it.
  • A flap is supplied in primer or in the colour it was sprayed when new, and a matching finish needs the paint code from the car's own identification plate.

Making sure it is the right one

  • Match the part number. A petrol or diesel flap and a charging flap for the same model are different parts, and so are the versions before and after a facelift.
  • Check whether yours comes with the hinge. Some models sell the flap alone and some sell it as an assembly, and the hinge is often the part that broke.
  • Compare the curvature against your own panel. A flap is pressed to the shape of one body line and will not sit flush in another.
  • Treat a painted used flap as a starting point for colour rather than a match, because it has aged with the car it came off.

What to look for in the photographs

A Part number — Stamped or on a label on the inner face, often under the hinge.
B Hinge — Whether the hinge is included and whether it is straight. A bent hinge is why most flaps no longer sit flush.
C Spring or damper — The mechanism that holds the flap open or shut. It is often what has failed, and it is sometimes a separate part.
D Inner face — The back of the flap, where water sits and where corrosion starts on a steel one.
E Outer surface — Look across the face at a shallow angle. A crease or a dent in a flat panel this small is invisible in a straight-on photograph.
