Volvo 31261589 Genuine Fuel Tank Cap — for S40, V50, C70, and C30

A loose or missing fuel cap can trigger a check engine light (EVAP leak codes), allow fuel vapors to escape, and compromise emissions compliance. Over time, the original cap’s tether strap can deteriorate and break, or the sealing gasket can harden, leading to a poor seal. Replacing it with this genuine Volvo cap restores a proper, factory-correct seal and clears the related warning.

This is a factory-original Volvo fuel tank cap (OE part number 31261589). It features a black plastic body with a matte finish and includes the integrated tether strap to keep the cap attached to the filler door . This is the same part sold at Volvo dealerships.

When to Replace

• Check Engine Light with EVAP leak codes
• Fuel cap does not click or seal properly
• Tether strap is broken or missing
• Visible cracks or damage to the cap
• Fuel odor around the filler neck
