Thanks Stephen :)
just realized that bmw dealership was charging me for my key fob battery + everyone else's coffee
love that....
You deserve it for taking your key to BMW to get the battery changed.

@@raftonpounder6696too right.some people have more money then sense.
Thanks for making this simple and quick - hate the videos that have 4 hours of life story before they show you what to do !!! Thanks
You're welcome, no point messing around! Thanks for watching :)
After 5 years, your video still was the solution for changing the key battery in my 4.20, Thank you!
Great stuff, five years eh! Can't believe it's been that long
Thank you so much for this simple video. The 'specialist' who came out to deal with my key issue told me that he had to demolish the keyfob body in order to access the battery. If only I had come to you first.
I hope it helps for the future, sorry to hear of your experience..
Perfect - your instructions worked great. I took it to the shop to get changed and they told me they couldn't get the back off so never replaced the battery. I saw your video and just did it myself in less than a minute. Thank you
That's great news, really pleased it helped you Kylie :)
Thank you for a short, simple and straight to the point video. It helped me out a lot!
Thans Khaja, appreciate the feedback :)
Good job ......No Bullshit Straight to the point. Great Video
Thanks :)
Ye wtf, i was missing ''Whatupppp UA-cam, its ya boy the car key man, dont forget to follow, subscribe and hit that like button, (shows an intro of 25 seconds with music that is fun for one time) so before we start this video look at this annoying app i call my sponder''
Awesome...that didn't take me 60 seconds! Thank you very much...I knew it was going to be something like that, but I didn't want to crack or break anything by just experimenting. This made it all clear!
Great stuff, well done
I was having a hard time to open it ,now it took me 15 seconds to open it. Thank you 🙏
You're welcome, so glad it helped :)
Thank you sir!!!
Years later but you helped me tremendously in a clear and simple way. Thank you!
Me too. Years later and just saw this video 👍🏻
Thank you very much! You saved me a ton of time and you helped me not scar up the key fob by trying to figure out how to open it. Very much appreciated!
Hi Dave, yes we see BMW keys every week that are ruined by the over zealous prying open. Thanks for the comment :)
Amazing clear instructions! Thank you so so so much, what a relief it was an easy fix!
You're welcome Ellie, glad you got it sorted :)
Cheers, dude. That solved me a headache.
I'd been staring at my key-fob for hours. No idea it would that easy.
Thanks again.
Thanks for the feedback John :)
I was about to damage my key if not watched this video! Thank you for so helpful video :)
That's good news Kamal, glad it saved your key :)
Thank you for saving me serious ££££! Thought I’d be making a trip to BMW for this.
Great stuff Olivia :)
Wow, you just saved me a trip to the BMW dealer! Totally thought it would be more complicated than this!
That's great Ross, :)

Looked at several videos before I found this one. This is by far the clearest. Video is impeccable. Verbal explanation ditto. Thx
Thanks Allan, your kind words are really appreciated :)
If you push the key blade into the slot the other side of the button (shown towards the top at 0:38) it pushes against a clip to release the back cover. It didn't fully release it on mine but it makes it a lot easier to then use a screwdriver on the tab as shown in the video.
Ok thanks for the tip Sam :)
Your instruction might be the intended way to pop it open.
Thank you! Short, simple and you showed everything important (specifically where to pry, and the battery type) - unlike some of the other crap videos on UA-cam. Thank you sir!
You're welcome, glad it helped you :)
Useful and succinct. I normally hate instructions by video but you got straight to the point and didn't waste our time. Thank you.
Thank you Josh, appreciate the feedback
U make me feel like a BMW professional within a few seconds. Thanks for sharing!
That's great Vian, really appreciate the feedback :)
Thanks .. I tried pressing the 2nd lug but felt like it was going to snap ... watched video and confirmed ... then I had the confidence to push a bit herder.
A classic case of easy when you know how ... thanks for passing on the knowledge.
Glad it helped, thanks for the feedback :)
Straight to the point instructions.
Excellent video, much appreciated!!!!
Thanks Matthew, appreciate the feedback :)
The thought of replacing a smart key battery can be daunting, but it's so easy and a great video too.
That's good to hear, gald it made it simple :)
The first video I've seen that clearly shows the small tab and which way to push it to pop the back cover. Bravo!
Thanks Hugo :)
Thank you for the video. The BMW (2015 335Xi) instruction manual is useless. Your method is so simple.
Sometimes it's easier when you can see it, instead of reading it. Thanks for the feedback and hope you're keeping well..
Both my keys went flat when i parked up in our hotel car park pre cruise. This video was so helpful in helping opening them so I could identify battery type and renew thanks
Thanks Vince, really pleased it helped and I hope you had a great cruise :)
I tried other videos but this is the only one that really showed you how to get the battery case off which is the hardest part - and there's a bit of a secret to it!
Thanks Nancy :)
Thank you so much, you took all the stress out of this simple (if you know how to do it) process. Nice and simple, thank you.
You're welcome John, thanks for the feedback :)
Thanks so much - saved me trying to find the manual and having to hope instructions for this were in there. Even managed to open it with just my fingernail thanks to that little tab you pointed out 👍
Great stuff, glad it helped :)
Thank you sir for your post. helping people even 5 years after posting.
It's gone quick! Thanks for the feedback :)
Excellent! I knew BMW would make it difficult so you would have to take it in or I would break it some how prying open. Thank you The Car Key Man and UA-cam!
Hi Kevin, you're welcome, glad it helped :)
Love it. Thanks. It was scary to pop the lid out, I was afraid to break it.
You're welcome, glad it helped you :)
Thanks! I called the dealer and they actually said “you should bring it in.“ Figured that was BS. Turns out it is.
Nice little earner for a dealership !
Thank you I spend at least 20 minutes trying to get it off!
Thanks for watching Dorota, really appreciate the feedback :)
Thanks for very clear video. Took seconds to replace battery - "knowledge is power!"
You're welcome Kenneth, thanks for watching :)
thank you car key man, 8 people in work tried to open it, no idea lol
You're welcome, glad it helped you :)
And here I thought I’d have to bring it to BMW. That was so easy. Thanks for this.
Easy when you know how Ashley :)
Thank you. Simple, clear and easy to follow instructions 🙏🏼
You're welcome Dele, thansk for watching :)
Brilliant video. Just the right amount of instructions to get the job done. Thank you.
Thanks David, really appreciate your feedback :)
My dad couldn't figure it out and now I get to look like a wizard in front of him. Thanks :)
Good job :)
Helpful. Thanks. I was wondering where lil spot is to pop the back off. ❤️ mines has been saying it needed a new battery for nearly 3 months. Possibly 4 🙈🙉Surprised it’s still going. But I guess I’ll change it now hehe
Hi, thanks for watching and glad it's helped you :)
Lol would the car star if the battery dies
@@corychaplin9625 yeah but I’d just pull the lil hidden key out of the fob for the door.. some don’t have the lil key and you’d wanna make sure you have a backup fob.
But that’s why I had the longest procrastination record. lol also when it doesn’t start you put the fob to the side of the steering wheel. The neck. There are arrows you sit the fob inbetween and it’s starts the car.
Thanks a million, for sure saved me a fortune in a BMW garage
Thanks for watching Matthew :)
Thank you! Just replaced two remote batteries!
Good job, glad it helped :)
Excellent video. Helped me stop faffing around with the key fob and accidentally causing my car to unlock or the back window to open! The manual instructions are not clear about the small tab to flick up with a screwdriver or some such. Now just waiting for that big fat 2450 battery to arrive which admittedly lasted ages. Thanks very much.
Welldone, really pleased it helped you :)
Thank you. So simple, I thought I had to shell out $200.00 for a new fob.
You're welcome, thanks for the comments :)
wow, so easy ??? Fortunately I saw this video so I can save some money. Thanks
Great stuff, thanks for the feedback :)
Thank you, fixed in 30 seconds thanks to your video!😊
That's great Dzjowlien, glad it helped :)
You made me look like a master technician!! Cheers dude!!
It's a pleasure, thanks for the feedback :)
Nice and simple video to follow, battery was £2.99 for two on Amazon and 2 minutes to change.
Great stuff Andrew, glad it helped and thanks for watching :)
Thank you, thank you, thank you!
I was about to call a dealership for a quote. I'm so glad to see your UA-cam. I opened it and ordered CR2450 battery from home depot @3.29 w/ free shipping!!!
Good job! Thanks for watching :)
Ive read a article in youcanic but this one is really great cause it has the actual thing thank you
Glad it helped :) will look the article up
Thank you for the video, I was about to destroy my fob because I was getting so frustrated ..... so I took a breather and searched and your video popped up.... thank you again! Cheers!
Glad you saved it! Thanks for the feedback :)
I almost destroyed my fob too lol..
Thanks helped. Did notice though that there is actually a place on the key to fit your screwdriver and pop the cover off more easily. But same thing, still did the job. Thanks
Yes, I realised after, either way works fine. Thanks for the feedback :)
I was afraid that I was going to break the cover if I pried it off. So easy now that I watched your video. Thanks so much for posting.
You're welcome Jerry, thanks for the feedback :)
Thanks! I looked at the valet key that was removed in step 1 and thought why not use the blunt end of that rather than a flat head screwdriver and it worked straightaway.
Hi Brian, yes, looking back the end of the key is also perfect. Thanks for watching and your feedback ;)
Easiest explanation on UA-cam.
Many thanks 👍
Thanks Colin :)
found the better on amazon for $3.75 with free shipping. Compared to BMW dealership who wanted to charge $25.00!!
Andrew Well Dealership prices are a joke. I also ordered mine from amazon.
They are wonderful but once it is an out of pocket charge. it is highway robbery.
Hospitals of America should go to their seminars, to steal more than they already do!
@@sahilg8254 why would you buy coin cell batteries from a car dealership?
Thank you so much! I was afraid of breaking the cover, but it worked as shown.
Thanks for watching :)
