Hi everyone, 

I'm new to ford (just bought a Ford Fiesta 1.25 59 plate) and wondering if anyone could help me with a few "issues" i have came across. 

1. Is there anyway to get into the boot if i accidentally lock my keys inside? (For future reference) is there a lock or button behind the badge? 

2. Also i know it has a lockless fuel cap but what if i want to put in some fuel system cleaner, i can't find a funnel or pipe anywhere in the boot? 

Thanks in advance 

Craig

    1. Not sure refer to your manual

    2. Buy a funnel from Halfords or Ford, Halfords probably cheaper.

    Has to be a specific diameter mate, it must be a Ford part either petrol or diesel variant depending on your motor; if it's not the exact diameter the flap won't open,

    Can't use just any funnel as it defeats the security purposes of the flap all together 😐

    Halfords would sell you one of these Fast Fill Pit lane cans 😁
