So, this is embarrassing and frustrating at the same time... The fuel filler safety device that's installed on mk6s was very loose on my 13 Golf... Went online to see if it can be removed, and it looked easy enough to do. I went to pull it, and I guess because it's old, some of it came apart and of course fell down the neck.... No clue if it was plastic, or one of the small springs
So I went ahead and pulled the sending unit out, siphoned the bit of diesel that was in the tank, and went looking for the piece(s) but I couldn't find anything. I can feel the entrance of neck to the tank, it seems to have a sort of cross around the hole, and on the other side I feel a spring of sort... I managed to get a picture of the filler neck entrance from the inside of the tank using an endoscope camera I have
Not sure if that's the spring that fell down or if that's supposed to be there. I have no idea what to do at this point
