Need Help: Fuel Door Bumper
2Addicts,
I need help. I injured my 228 today and I am having a hard time finding some resources to help me ID the part I need to replace and maybe a DIY on how to remove and replace. I can't imagine I'm the only person but you guys are the 2-series experts! The little rubber bumper was broken as I drove away while the gas pump nozzle was still connected. Everything else is fine but the rubber bumper is broken in two pieces towards the tip of the rubber bumper. At first I thought it was going to be this part (Fuel Pocket Bumper - BMW (51-17-7-257-780)) but since the stick that is inside the bumper seems to originate from inside the car I am clueless as to what part I might need to replace. The diagram images of the part only show the rubber part and no "stick" on the back end of the rubber to it which is the actual part I broke. Please help this guy restore my bimmer to 100% health. Any help or pointer would be most appreciated. |

I believe the "stick" attaches to the drive = #6:

This seems to be the stick that you're supposed to just be able to click in, with rubber. Works like a pen. Click, in, click out. |

just make sure to find the right one that fits for your car. simple search of "fuel door latch" will suffice. the above ejector from TINY BMW seems to be what you're looking for

I just broke mine last week. Part was about $10-12 from dealer. Pulled old one out with pliers and popped the new one in. Took about 30 seconds. Probably the cheapest part I'll ever buy for this car. Haha.
