How to remove pull cord from

macafee2 · 4th April 2018, 08:22

How do I remove what looks like a pull cord, for the fuel filler? The "cord" is in the off side internal panel of a Tourer?

There looks like a fitting half way along the cord, does this come apart or do I need to remove the cord from the mechanism it attaches to, if so how?

The rear inside is now looking a bit bare as so much has been removed so it can dry out and this is the last item to take apart

thank you

solved it, joint half way along comes apart with the help of a small flat bladed screw driver. found this link to Rimmers web site

No problem Arctic, its nice I get to solve my own problems.

I never knew the sunroof drains went to the rear, that's another damn good how to you have written.

Back of the car is looking a bit sorry for itself as all behind the rear seats has been removed.
The sides have been in the wife's airing cupboard for a few days and are mow dry, the floor over the spare wheel was in the conservatory drying, that's now dry.
The inside of the car now looks dry, all I need to do is prove where the leak is from, I think there may be more then 1 leak. Near side rear window and one up high as the rear off side pillar was very wet.

will search in a couple of weeks, too busy at the moment
