Today we will explain how to open the trunk lid of the Audi A4 model B8 in emergency situations. Emergency opening can be important when we need to retrieve something from the trunk but the lock is jammed.

To perform this operation, we need to recline the seats to access the compartment. We move the cover of the internal lock using a flathead screwdriver.

Using the same screwdriver, we operate the lock from the inside, unlocking it by pressing on it and giving a few taps to the left. By doing this, we would have opened the trunk; unfortunately, it will be necessary to replace the lock afterward.
