Part: Key
Operation: How to replace the battery of a VW Passat key

Today we will explain how to replace the battery of the key/remote on a 2016 Volkswagen Passat when it stops working. The first thing to do is to remove, applying a slight force, the cover of the remote in order to open it. The second thing to do is to remove the battery and insert a new one, a CR2032 3 Volt model. We finish the replacement by closing the remote cover and going near the vehicle to test the correct functioning of the key even from a distance. If it does not work, it may be necessary to reprogram the key.

How to open the bonnet of the Volkswagen Polo

Let's see in this short and simple guide the instructions that will allow us to open the bonnet of the Volkswagen Polo. First of all we open the front door, on the driver's side, and start pulling the opening lever of the engine hood, in order to open the lock; then let's move to the front of the vehicle and unhook the tab that we find on the central part, above the manufacturer's emblem, as shown in the video.
