Not so sure on that. It happens at very low speed under light acceleration and deceleration, or at least that’s when I can hear it. Definitely no pops happening. I need to try to get it on video....

Fuel Door Scratches

Just noticed my fuel door seems to be scratching up the paint in the opening. Bought some scotch guard film to stick on there for now. Anyone else having the same problem?
