However, I did notice that before a drive it opens the usual way. Is it to do with the petrol? I pump from the same station. Cannot be an additional pressure inside the fuel tank caused by the petrol.
Many thanks for a quick solution.
I have drive this car for more than 4000km and this the first time it happened.

Kind regards,

Sorry but This makes no sense to me. Only thing stopping you front opening the hatch is the doors being locked. It doesn't open on its own. You have to unlock the car and push it in and it pops out. Nothing automatic here. And certainly no Alerts in the car that say the door can or can't be opened. Maybe one of you don't shut it but I doubt that as there is nothing electronic on it.

Also never seen anything that says "refueling possible in..." only the normal fuel low alerts
