Not a tongue twister or a medical complaint!
I filled my Xantia up with cooking oil this afternoon and noticed that the fuel filler flap had no 'spring' to it. On further investigation it appears that the upper black plastic 'spring' lever has broken. I have been on service.citroen and they want about £64 for the complete unit (flap, pivot and support) as the black plastic support, that attaches with 3 screws to the wing and the flap hinges on, is not available on it's own.
I do not know whether the Hatchback and Estate versions are the same, mine is a Mark 1 Estate 1998, but does anybody have one spare from a scrapped car that I could purchase? Failing that is there any way to fix the one that I have as I am worried that it may flap about in the wind when traveling at speed.

He's not wrong 'cos I just bought a hinge for mine, same part for estate and hatch.
It infuriates me to be wrong when I know I'm right
