How do you replace the battery in the remote control with key?

My only thought. I have had a couple problems with the magnetic keys in my cars. My wife key has gone bad twice but my key would work. It was the car she drives with her key. My key worked which I rarely used so we just replaced her key with a factory original from the dealership our problem was solved. I would suggest you swap the key you use and see if it makes a difference. If it does you will have some new info to give to the dealership.

you dont have freon at your ac , you have R134A gas. Second thing is what was the pressure on HP and LP after ac service, how much gas was added. The second thing is what climate control you have at your car, if automatic check dtc, if manula check connection on relay for ac clutch. Its very easy to find but i need more details ...

You need to have the VW dealer or a well equipped VW savvy repair shop scan the body control module (or whatever VW calls it) and see what codes return, it is likely the problem, but hold on you can't jut pop one in it must be programmed for your car.

On the driver's side door handle, there is a cap covering the key hole on the right side. On the bottom of the cap is a small ****. Use the valet key to pry it up and off. Then you may open the door, most likely sounding the alarm, so you will need to insert the remote in the ignition to stop the NOISE!!!! Hope this helps. This is how I lock my remote away when I go somewhere to run.

TURN IGNITION SWITCH OFF.MAKE SURE RADIO IS OFF SO YOU WONT LOSE CODE.DISCONNECT NEGATIVE BATTERY CABLE.WAIT AT LEAST 10 MINUTES BEFORE REMOVING AIR BAG.LET THE AIR BAG BATTERY BACK UP POWER. DISCHARGE.BECAREFUL HANDLING AIR BAG. DONT CARRY IT BY IT WIRES.WHEN CARRYING IT.HOLD IN BOTH HANDS SECURLY.WHEN LAYING IT DOWN .BESURE THE BAG AND TRIM COVER FACING UP.BESURE TO KEEP KIDS AND PETS AWAY. BECAUSE AIR BAG CAN STILL BE DEPLOYED.SO BE CAREFUL.

All you have to do is unflip the clips and lift off the cover...pull out the old replace with the new....close it back up and that's it.

No. VW has made it nearly impossible to solve any key-related problems without a costly visit to the dealership. Battery must be replaced, and I assure you. the dealership will advise you that the ONLY place that you can find that particular battery is from the dealership. They like it that way.
