How to replace the battery in a 2016-2018 Audi key fob. TT A4 Q7 A5 Q5

[@andy1dp]

Cheers confirming what I was trying! Just have to pinch those tabs harder 👍 CR2032 Battery goes + side down (marked on battery) for anyone who needs to know 🙏

[@jayharvey9239]

it is a poorly designed system just to replace the battery. Other brands are easy- very easy and quick.

[@jackkallemdjian3945]

Well done my 2019A4 came with no handbook this has saved me a lot of hassle ,👍

[@M_IkeLeBlanc]

Thank you! It was a struggle to get the battery pack out of the fob. The little "wiggle" you suggested did the trick!

[@bensmithkent22]

Simpler and better engineered than the jlr fobs of the era.

[@jayharvey9239]

@@bensmithkent22 are you joking? This is poorly engineered. Every other brand is easy and fast. Audi is always more difficult for no reason other than to make you visit the dealer. Audi sucks.

[@jayharvey9239]

Audi makes everything more difficult and complicated than it needs to be. Try changing your cabin air filter.

[@tomvoy497]

Simple but tricky.
Whit out your presentation could make mess.
Thank you
Thumb up

[@Criosdean]

Thank you so much for sharing your knowledge. Saved us a few quid by DIY instead of paying a garage to do it. :)

[@laurenbenveniste6410]

Super helpful video, had to watch a few and yours was the one that helped me get it right!

[@geniegenie2453]

Nice video demonstrating how to reveal and remove the battery compartment. Really helpful. I thought the verbal instruction 'make sure you put the battery in the right way round' could have been better supported with the video to give people more confidence. However, if you watch carefully at 1:32, the writing on the battery is visible and the battery is then inverted into the battery compartment (writing face down).

[@robertkolman3401]

Thanks a lot, you saved me from the trip to my car dealer, i couldn't figure it out by my self

[@JonathanSegal1968]

Thanks for the simple demo. Exactly what I needed.

[@ndhypnotherapy]

Thank you for the demo, made my day a lot easier!

[@roycetan2609]

Thank you very much. Battery has bn screaming weak for several weeks .. was stressed until I saw your Tube.

[@mariapalino7379]

Thank you! So easy very helpful much appreciated

[@matthewk9131]

Hahaha I'm guessing the dislikes are from the Audi dealerships who are annoyed at the fact that you posted this video for free whereas they would charge people for this type of thing. Still a good video and helpful.

[@darrenobrien2163]

Thanks for the demo was going Audi dealer..

[@drewmarshammarsham2955]

Thanks for that, just what I needed to get going again. Many thanks

[@rheostar]

Thanks for the video, it’s exactly what I was looking for.

[@tomsbluzmanis7040]

Thank you, this helped a lot in office life for fast getting things done without the need to call official Audi dealer.

[@northumbriandave]

Excellent help. Always told by dealership that it shouldn't be attempted by owner, needed to be done by trained person - Having followed the video and seen how easy it is I think I know why they say that.

[@jayharvey9239]

Audi wants you hard earned $$$. They make everything more difficult than it need be. Lexus is simple and takes 30 seconds. Try changing your cabin filter. You need to be a contortionist on a Q5 or Q7 . A replacement key is $600 + $200 to pair it with your car which takes 30 seconds. They take advantage of customers any way they can. Shameful. They should change the key battery for FREE. Yes free. You bought your car from them. Do something to show you appreciate the business.
The service dept is poor. I've had to return numerous times because they don't do it the first time. The MMI system is wonky. This is my last Audi. We don't have these problems with Lexus. Our neighbor has a Genesis and raves about their service.

[@ReptileAndWildlifeRescue]

Thank you very much, much more simple that I feared it would be!

[@wenceslaoorizabal5363]

Thanks a lots it fixed my problem

[@craigmulder3124]

Thank you, was looking for a hidden plastic catch

[@mehremadi4683]

Thank you. Very helpful.

[@jue4616]

Hi Thank you for full explanation.only just need now have an alert that battery low.do you by any chance know where the emergency key goes in if battery runs completely down .I have the audi tt 2016 kind regards.

[@IA2M469]

Key is just for opening the doors (remove the caps). Normally you have energy enough to start the car a couple more times but I would suggest to replace the battery asap once you get the message. I just received the message today and ended up here :)
(A4 Avant 2017)

[@ashleyhaines4590]

Just watched your video, thanks for explaining this procedure. Excellent cheers

[@melsagelord3991]

Still not working after replacement. Anything I could’ve missed? Correct battery, and facing right way.

[@GarageTechAutomotive]

Just double check it is the right way up, do you have any way to test that the new battery is ok? otherwise, it could be a faulty remote, or it has lost the coding to the vehicle

[@melsagelord3991]

Thanks. I’ll try a fresh pack and repeat.

[@brandongarciabrandongarcia7733]

[@lav773]

Thanks 👍

[@awesomegamingscenes]

Thanks bro

[@melsagelord3991]

No. All I can do is buy a new battery.
As for the coding.. how would I be able to tell? All I know is the spare works fine, and I have the right battery in the right way around.

[@GarageTechAutomotive]

Hey, I can’t remember if there’s an LED light on these remotes which flash when you press a button, you could compare to the other remote that does work. That way you will know if the remote is working. Otherwise you won’t be able to tell if the remote is working, you’ll have to take it to a garage and they will be able to check with their diagnostic equipment.

Many Thanks ! Cheers!

[@davidleit5991]

Unless I missed it, you never showed if the battery goes up or down, the reason many ppl will watch?

[@qandre01]

You cleverly hid which way up the battery goes 😞

[@raeh9]

Thanks good job

[@jloos9959]

Thanks, the guy at the store about ruined my key fob with his pocket knife!!!!!!,

[@driesmertens8]

Thanks. Just wondering: anyone got an idea how long the key will last once you got the warning?

[@mavssx1]

Dries Mertens I dont know but it's been a month so far for me and still counting.

[@jeremyv11000]

Mine died in a year because we are suppose to put in charging tray in arm rest it wirelessly charges

[@matthiasmaskow9162]

thanks. It works :-)

Thanks👌🏻

[@shanewayzFlims]

Thanks buddy

[@jeremyv11000]

My dealer did both my keys for free. Supposedly the arm rest tray is the wirelessly charges the keys.

[@IA2M469]

Just for cellphone. CR 2032 isn't made for wireless charge

[@pavelkratochvil3104]

thanks :)

[@ryand343davies3]

[@levivlz]

CR 2032, fyi ;)

[@pkasb90]

CR2032 thanks.

[@radoelenkov4766]

It's OK but all info in that video could be fitted just in a 10-12 seconds. No point watching 2 minutes nonsense. Just show how to remove the blade, then how to squeeze the battery holder to take it out and that's it.

[@HCFrick-sx1ty]
