Audi A3 key shell replacement

Model: Audi A3 MK 2, 8P - Years 2003-2013
Part: Key

In today's video tutorial we will see how to remove and replace the key shell on an Audi A3, but also on other models of the manufacturer (from 2005 to 2013). First we go to pry the back cover, with something thin, to remove the battery; then unscrew the screw below and open the remote control, removing the electronic board. At this point we remove the key and the transponder; we just have to carry everything on the new shell by inserting the electronic card, the transponder and the key together with its mechanism, as shown in the video!
