In this video tutorial, you will see the main steps to remove the battery from your Audi A6 second generation. First, locate the battery position under the hood: open the hood and start removing the seal along the hood and the upper plastic grille.

At this point, you will have access to the battery: disconnect the two terminals and remove the bolt of the bracket located at the bottom using a ratchet wrench with an extension: this bolt keeps the battery secure. Now replace it with the new one!
