Purpose and function of the fuel filler flap

The offered flap is dedicated to Mercedes W205 class models and is mounted in the rear part of the body. It is responsible for shielding the fuel filler from dirt, moisture, and mechanical damage, while maintaining the body line consistent with the factory design. Using an original component allows for maintaining proper fitment with the fender, bumper, and opening mechanism.

Color and paint matching

The flap is finished in the Brilliant Blue Metallic - 896 shade, which allows for aesthetic matching to a body in the same color. The metallic paint provides a characteristic depth and gloss, harmonizing well with the styling line of the Mercedes W205. In the case of cars in a different color, the element can serve as a base for repainting, while maintaining the original structure and shape.

Installation characteristics

The fuel filler flap is structurally prepared for installation in the rear zone of the vehicle, in the place of the factory mount. Its original origin facilitates installation in the existing hinge and opening mechanism, without the need for bodywork modifications. Thanks to the maintenance of correct dimensions and body bending radii, it is possible to achieve even gaps and proper adhesion to adjacent body panels.

Condition and service application

The element comes from disassembly and is intended for service applications, such as post-accident repair, replacement of a damaged flap, or restoring full functionality to the refueling zone. Choosing an original flap from the same model series allows for reducing the risk of fitment problems typical of replacements with universal geometry.

Technical support and component selection

When selecting a fuel filler flap, it is worth paying attention to compatibility with the specific body version and vehicle configuration. Comparing the shape and mounts with the currently installed element, as well as verification by catalog numbers in Mercedes service documentation, may be helpful. In case of expansion or repair of the entire refueling system, knowledge about the construction of the fuel system will also be useful – it is discussed in detail in the article Fuel system – injectors, pumps, and fuel tank: maintenance and regeneration, where you will find information on diagnostics, selection by numbers, and operation.
