How to change the battery of an Audi A3

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

In this video tutorial we are shown how to replace the battery in an Audi A3. The first step will require opening the front bonnet and securing it using the special holding rod. We will now be able to locate the battery location in the engine compartment on the right hand side. At this point we will have to remove the plastic cover that protects the battery and with a socket wrench we will have to remove the bolts located above the battery terminals; now we will have to unscrew the screw that blocks the metal plate positioned under the battery and connected to the two sides of the same, and to do this we will always use a socket wrench. The next step will be to release the plastics of the container, pull the clamps upwards and remove the battery to proceed with its replacement. We will then position the new battery in the appropriate compartment and first screw the blocking plate and then the screws that block the terminals, obviously after having connected them to their respective poles. Finally, we will mount the plastic cover.
