R8 Spyder fuel filler flap not closing

[Lox]

Hi, hope someone can help. Went to fill up with fuel yesterday and, while the fuel filler flap opened OK, it now won't close again. Pretty embarrassing driving along with that flapping around aimlessly in the wind!

It seems that the little retaining bolt has retracted as it should, but then refused to pop back out. I've tried puling the manual release in the engine bay (I know that's to open the flap!) to see if that might prompt some action, but no joy.

Anyone have any ideas?

Have you tried spraying some silicon lubricant on there? My first generation one started sticking closed and that fixed it.
