How to remove the rear bumper of an Audi A3? Follow these steps carefully. This operation is not too complex if done methodically.

Open the boot; using a socket or battery-powered screwdriver, undo the securing bolts located at the sides of the rear lights and remove them. Take off the lower cover of the boot, then remove the bolts located at the sides of the boot (as shown in the video) and the rivets around the wheel arch liners.

Once the bumper is free from any screws or bolts, grasp it with both hands and pull it away from the bodywork (disconnect any power cables). Fit the new bumper by reversing the operations.

Once all tyres have been inflated to the recommended pressure, turn on the ignition to check that the light has disappeared: if it is still present, it may be necessary to drive for a few miles, allowing the sensors to work and thus turning off the light.
