Mine does the same thing. I think it’s one of the items left off because of the chip shortage.

It's not broken. They just don't lock.

Thanks, can the Ad-blue and fuel openings be tampered with.

Idk about the blue juice. I have a p400. Yes, it's ready for sugar.

I took delivery of a new Defender last week. There were lots of things missing which LR put down to lack of chips but to not having a locking fuel flap or sunglasses storage is nothing to do with chips. What are they up to?

My 22 V8 that I took delivery of last week does not have a locking fuel filler door (it has everything else). Do we know for sure that it used to be standard?

It is not a standard feature. I've had 4 JLR vehicles and none have ever had it.
