Audi A3 - Video tutorial

Model: Audi A3 MK 2, 8P - Years 2003-2013
Part: Key
Operation: Audi A3 key shell replacement

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!

How to reset the service in the Opel Antara?

As we can see in this tutorial, resetting the service in the Opel Antara is an extremely simple and fast operation. Before proceeding, of course, we must have completed all the planned maintenance work. We start by inserting the key but leaving it in the initial position, after which we keep the accelerator pedal fully depressed and at the same time turn on the instrument panel, not the engine. At this point, we release the accelerator and press it 3 consecutive times, always all the way. We then restart the panel to verify that the procedure has been carried out correctly.
