Part: Key

How do we change the battery of our Skoda key remote? Follow this video to proceed. First, press the key release button to free the key insert space.

Once you locate the worn battery, replace it with a new one that has the same specifications and dimensions. Refit the two covers by pressing them together.

How to Check the Oil Level on a Jeep Renegade?

To check the oil level on a Jeep Renegade, you need to open the bonnet to access the components inside the engine bay: on the lower left side of the engine block, you will find the dipstick for checking the level. This should be pulled out and thoroughly cleaned with a cloth: once cleaned, reinsert it back into its tube and pull it out immediately after. This way, you can check that the oil mark is between the minimum and maximum levels; finally, you can place the dipstick back in its tube.
