How do you disassemble the key of the Volkswagen Golf 6?

Model: Volkswagen Golf MK 6, Golf VI, Golf 6, 5K1 - Years 2008-2012
Part: Key

Usually the disassembly of a car key is necessary because the internal battery needs to be replaced, in most cases a CR2032, as it is discharged and for this reason it is impossible to insert and remove the central locking. Taking inspiration from the video available here, we see how to do it: The blade is removed to be inserted into the ignition cylinder, the shell of the key is pulled forcefully, grabbing it in the central part, in order to divide it and finally the rear part of the same shell is opened in half to access the aforementioned battery and internal circuit.

How to change the time on a Toyota Yaris

In this video we see how to change the time on a Toyota Yaris, specifically when it comes to switching from daylight saving time to standard time and vice versa. We go to the multifunction screen and press "settings": from there we go to press the clock, simply click on daylight saving time, and the clock will change the time for us, without doing anything else. All we want to do is just adjust the time format to 12 or 24 hours, as is customary in the area where we live: for example in Anglo-Saxon countries it is common to set the time to 12 hours, while in the European Union it is normally set to 24 hours.
