Model: Volkswagen Up MK 1 - Years 2011-2024
Part: Battery

The following steps will show us the process of disassembly and replacement of the battery of the Volkswagen Up, as well as the Skoda Citigo and Seat Mii. First, we open the hood of the car and start unscrewing the fastening screws that we find on the base of the battery brackets, using a socket wrench with extension; then we disconnect both battery terminals (positive and negative), as shown in the video. At this point, we remove and replace the battery with the new one, of the correct type and with the same amperage; we reassemble the battery by inserting it in the correct direction.
