VW Touareg emergency key and battery removal

[@maggits1]

VW technician also advised me before sliding the battery tray back in to press ANY key on the fob to discharge static electricity in the unit. Very helpful video, thank you.

[@charlieedwards1669]

Mate - you dont need brute force - you need to depress both VW logo button on top AND locking tap to slide out. It will come easily.

[@tongy89]

Pressing the VW logo on the front of the fob releases the emergency key. At least it does on mine

[@alstalda]

I've used your video more than once to remind me which side of the key comes off. As a small addition, I use a lump of Blu-tack to pull the chrome piece off, makes the whole process a lot easier! 👍

I didn't have a small screwdriver, so I used the end of a paperclip. That worked for me!

[@RyanNewton]

Clear and informative however I wouldn’t rag out the key with a screwdriver, that will weaken the stopper and you may lose all your keys as it’s normally used as a key chain loop

[@davidford9823]

Correct! You must hold down the VW button while you pull on the key. It comes out easily.

[@OptimaMrL]

Great video. Thank you

[@Luigimotorscars]

no problem Leo please check out our other channel ua-cam.com/channels/A5BxqNslvqgVl61NvRTLjQ.html

[@amilaperera85]

Thank you sir !

[@danmillott3535]

Has anyone else found they couldn't open the side cover using the little slot behind the emergency key?
But I did find you can open the silver side cover directly, like this: photos.app.goo.gl/om8afrPucHuhsNa96

[@steverodgers9032]

Thankyou Dan, your spot on! mine didnt open either

[@lukekennedy4458]

Thanks, life saver

[@adriahogg1689]

If you hold the button while pulling the key out it just comes out no force needed

[@ltippers7029]

Awesome! Cheers mate!

[@ericrioux4484]

Thanks by the way sometimes my touareg 2012 won’t start when i turn the key (not even a motor noise) and after several attemps it finaly start. Any idea?

[@danielmillott5460]

At the 40 sec mark, if you push the little stopper with the top of your finger AS WELL AS PRESS THE VW logo button on the other side, the emergency key should slide out really easy without any force... like this: ua-cam.com/video/GtBVV3zRsOg/v-deo.html

[@gitausaxena]

thank you

[@globetrotter8556]

Great video but the design of the fob is really stupid.

[@MR2Sensei]

To remove the emergency key you have to press on the VW logo...

[@Alex-gx1sc]

[@samsondzikamunhenga8709]

Wrong way of removing the manual key

[@DailyJuicy]

Push down doesn’t work……..

[@RickMcCharles1]
