How to Replace the Battery on the Volkswagen Passat B8?

Model: Volkswagen Passat B8, 3G, MK 8 - Years 2014-2023
Part: Battery

If you need to replace the battery on the Volkswagen Passat B8, you can see how to do it from the attached video guide. Start by disconnecting the negative terminal by unscrewing the 10mm bolt, then proceed with the positive terminal and subsequently remove the side cover of the battery. There is a 14mm bolt at the front bottom that also needs to be removed to release the bracket holding the battery in place. Once removed, you can lift it out and replace it. Reassembly is equally simple; just follow the same procedure in reverse.
