gas tank door Lexus RX300 Sign In

The door doesn't open when the lever is pulled inside the car. There is nothing wrong with the lever, cable or even the plastic catch inside the door. The spring to the door seems to be missing not allowing the door to swing open to clear the catch. Takes two people to fill up with gas.

if the lever actuated plunger that holds and realeses the door when you pull the lever in the cab is working.....then like you said it has to be the spring on the door hinge.

probably have to goto Lexus to either get a replacement spring or knowing dealerships youll end up having to buy the whole door and have to paint it to match lol
