I don't remember ever seeing one , but may be wrong . Since it arrived in November 2002 have been putting WD40 on the little black lever that releases the door lid every two weeks and it works everytime . Don't forget to work the black lever in and out after spraying it a few times .

I read the TSB and it looks easy. I'm going to do it myself.

When I took my car for oil change I told my dealer about my fuel door not being alligned good and he ordered a new one for me without any questions and under warranty. I'm waiting for them to paint it.

Hmm, the problem in the TSB seems to be fixable with 3 rubber footies and a lip spring. I see no reason to get a whole fuel door cover. Is yours damaged?

Waiting for them to paint it? I thought it was plastic molded in the color of the car. Mine is on my redline. Maybe it's because mine is a non-metallic paint?
