Is the battery in your car damaged? Let's see how to remove the battery from the Audi A3. Open the car door and pull up the engine compartment release lever located at the bottom left of the dashboard, then lift the front bonnet, disengaging the locking lever with your fingers, and secure it. Once the engine bay is open, you will find the battery on the right side.

Remove the securing bolts from the battery terminals, then take out the battery from the engine bay and replace it with a new one (same voltage).
