Hey guys, I recently ran into this situation with my fuel door on 540i and its super embarrassing. Its an easy fix though!

You need to go to ECS tuning or FCP and look up "Gas Door Pot" I suggest looking at RealOEM. I'm pretty sure it's the same thing for the Charging door, just a different name. The unit is one piece, so it comes with the servo already installed.

To replace it, you need to take off the wheel and wheel liner. The gas door pot is one piece, this includes the rubber gaskets, the plastic door, and the servo. Unbolt the gas spout and remove the rubber gasket. The entire assembly will come out. Remove the gas door from the gas pot and replace with the new one. Install takes 10 mins, maybe another 10 mins to take off the tire and get the car jacked up.

The Cover Pot is around $70.
