Removing the Battery from a VW Polo

Model: Volkswagen Polo Polo 5, Polo V, MK 5, MK V, 6R - Years 2009-2017
Part: Battery

Is the battery of your VW Polo unresponsive? Let's look at the replacement after thorough checks. Open the car door and pull up the engine cover release lever located at the bottom left of the dashboard, then lift the bonnet, disengaging the locking lever with your fingers, and secure it. Once the engine bay is open, you will find the battery at the top left. Unscrew the securing bolts of the battery terminals, then unscrew the locking screw and remove the cover. Take out the battery from the engine bay and replace it with a new one (same voltage).
