How to replace the battery of an Audi A3 key

Model: Audi A3 8V, MK 3 - Years 2012-2019
Part: Key

When you want to replace the battery of the key for an Audi A3 vehicle, you need to insert a flat-head screwdriver into the side where the ignition key is usually placed in order to open the cover of the remote control. Then you will need to remove the old battery and insert a new one, model CW2032. Close the cover of the remote control key and go near the car to open and close it, in order to verify the functioning of the key. If, despite the new battery, the remote control does not work, it may be necessary to completely disassemble the remote control and clean the microchip and buttons, as shown in the video.
