In this video, we will see how to remove the door of an Audi A3 8P: to do this operation it is not necessary to remove the inner panel, but we will instead have to remove the electrical connector that determines the inclination of the door, and which is located inside it. We then have to remove the two T45 bolts located in the lower hinge, and a central bolt in the upper hinge.

Once these connections are removed, the door should come out without too much difficulty: remember that to remove it we always have to pull it upwards and at the same time towards us.
