Unlocking the voice commands and App Connect on the Volkswagen Golf cannot be done independently: you must contact an authorised dealer, who will unlock both features using specific programmes. Once the two functions are available, you can connect your smartphone to the onboard computer via App Connect, whether it runs iOS or Android.

As shown in this video, replacing the spring is quite simple and takes little time. After opening the casing halfway, first position the key, then the spring housing, and finally insert the spring into the previously mentioned housing. Close the casing by rotating it clockwise, ensuring all components fit perfectly, and test the key's flip mechanism.
