How to open the remote control and replace the battery of the A3 - A4 - A5 - A6

Model: Audi A3 Sportback MK 3 - Years 2012-2019
Part: Key

Let's find out the steps on how to remove the key remote control and how to replace the battery of the Audi A3 Sportback, but also of the A4, A5 and A6. First of all, we take our remote control in hand and start by pressing the button on the back to remove the physical key from the remote control itself; then we go to pull the battery holder that we find inside, as shown in the video. At this point we replace the battery with the new one, of the right type (in this case a 3V CR 2032); reassemble it on the battery holder, inserting it in the correct direction.
