Battery replacement for the Volkswagen Golf GTI

Model: Volkswagen Golf Golf VII, MK 7, Golf 7 - Years 2012-2019
Part: Battery

Today we will discover the instructions that will allow us to disassemble and replace the battery of the Volkswagen Golf GTI, in simple and quick steps. First, we open the hood of the car and start removing the battery cover; then we disconnect both battery terminals (positive and negative), as shown in the video. At this point, we unscrew the battery bracket screw to remove it from its compartment, replacing it with the new one (having the same amperage); we reassemble the battery and make the electrical connection, finally starting the engine!
