love how the hardest part is extracting the batteries from the packaging
Feeling ashamed to admit it, but we’ve gone to the car dealership to change our batteries for years 😂
Thanks to this video, it takes now 30 sec instead. And a lot less money.
So thanks 🙏
Made me smile to see that I’m not the only one to struggle with those really annoying battery blister packs 😂
Lately I even cut the blister through using exacto knife over the coint battery to get it out ;P Din't find a faster way
Thanks for the CLEAR guide... you found it harder to open the new battery pack than the fob!...
pefect. the dealership won't tell you this and like to charge a lot of money to just put a battery in. Thank you sir.
I was gonna take mine to a Skoda dealer until I watched this. Thanks
A clear explanation and "how to" demonstration, thank you.
Thank you! Simply rotated the screwdriver head in the groove and it popped the plastic cover off 😀👍
Great. Thank you. My battery flew across the room too!
Many thanks from Finland. I was just wondering if I have to call the service because the manual didn't tell anything about battery changing! You're great!
Sorted me out .... 2017 Skoda Superb. Took a few seconds. Excellent video 👍
Really helpful. It solved the problem immediately. Thank you very much

Very useful, thank you
Nice,
Thanks for the tip!
Thank you so much from Morocco
Tip: You can use the corner of the cover as a tool to pry out the dead battery. Also with a bit of force you can remove the cover by hand.
Spot on for your video
perfect thank you for explain for my future reference ☺
Thank you brother!😊👍🤘
Fast good info :)
Thank you very helpfull
Thanks for the help.
Works perfectly, thanks for posting, did use a 2032 as advised they last longer.
it goes? 2025 is 2.5mm height and 2032 is 3.2mm height!
@@LEGBAFPV yes
@@LEGBAFPV No its impossible 2032 is too fat.
@@friendduck What? I just literally put in a 2032 and it works perfectly.
I all so use 2032 it fits in
Thanks, saved me a bunch of money.
Was helpful!
Un grand merci 🙏
If you do not have a CR2025 battery, the key's battery compartment has sufficient tolerance to hold a CR2032 battery. Win-Win situation. The CR2032 battery has a higher capacity and so will last longer before the next required replacement.
Oooh i saw it on the shop(2032) but i didnt took it because I thought it wont fit inside...
Mine had a 2032 in it from the factory. Had the car from new
There was a CR2025 inside but a CR2032 battery also fits
Thank you!
Hello there, I'm looking for the type of screwdriver that will open the key. That small metal screw under the battery. Do you have idea what it is?
Hvala! 😁😁
Thank You.
Many thanks!

Thanks bro :D
Works on a 2018 Superb but there seem to be several type out there.
Good job
Thanks, though my Scala key had a Panasonic CR2032 in it from the factory. Maybe because its keyless entry and start they put the higher capacity battery in? Otherwise identical to this though. Thanks
My Rapid from 2017 had the same CR 2032 Panasonic battery. Also a Ford Transit Connect had the same Panasonic battery. Maybe depend on the region with which type of battery cars are factory equipped. Romanian here.
Are you happy with Scala? This will be the next company car, after Skoda Rapid. Could you tell 1-2 strong points and 1-2 weakness?
Thanks!
Thank the advice! It worked very well. Cheers mate!
Thank you
How do you clear the message on the display of the car, afther key battery change??
thx!!!! :D
why did you end up with the previous battery?
Thanks
Thx for the video! I changed the battery, but the error message "Change the key battery" is not disappeared from the screen, even the "Car status display " continue to show this error message. How to confirm the battery is changed yet?
Rajmund Kovács car should recognize it
@@JRCarReviews Thank you for the quick answer. I just changed the battery also to an Energizer. After the first drive the error message rests on the screen. May it be that takes time to recognize the battery change? For example after the 2nd 3rd usage of the car?
it si good
You can use a 2032 battery too
thx
Please can somebody tell me why after I put the new battery, still showing the same text that I need to change the battery? 🤦♂️
Evidentně neví, že po vyndání staré by měl aspoň 10s držet jedno z tlačítek, aby došlo k totálnímu vybití klíče. Protože pokud to neudělá, tak klíč bude hlásit vybitou baterií (ikdyž v klíči bude nová)....

Pozdrav, u zadnjih 2 mjeseca promjenio sam 4 baterije, probao sam sa panasonic, Duracell, Varta, sve 2025 i za nekih desetak dana mi javlja da je baterija pri kraju, da ju promjenim. Neznam u čemu je problem, nitko mi do sada nije znao reći, znaš li ti možda? Hvala unaprijed
Mario Karabelj možda nešto nije uredu sa pločom ako guta bateriju, jer je namijenjeno da radi koju godinu na jednoj bateriji. Put u servis po novi ključ. Ako je u garanciji nema troškova, ako nije, možda lokalni bravar može naručit jeftinije. Sretno!
Josip Ricov hvala ti.
Poslao sam mail sa upitom direkt u skodu.hr pa cekam da se jave povratno. I jos samo jedna stvar, dobio sam info da je baterija u kljucu punjiva a ne obicna, jel to moguce?
Hvala
Moja nije, možda je to nešto novo. Bilo bi super da je. :)
If you replace and it's not working, check for a baby-safe sticker on the bottom of the battery, and remove it (of course). Just fell for this 😬
Holly molly, thank you for the advice, that was my issue ❤
to nech podnik vyměnit nebo to je snad tvoje auto? v tom případě hodně úspěšných let ve splácení tohohle spotřebního kšuntu :D
How to actually open the key is at 0:40
You can use a 2032 as well which lasts longer than a 2025.
I have skoda
Attention, for reset the Key you have to take a Button for more than 3 seconds, After outputting the old Batterie and bevor putting the new one in 🤦🏽♂️
No, you dont have to reset anything, Just replaces the battery and it works
Battery should last longer than 18 months, both my keyfobs have battery warning around 12 months.
My car 3 years 8 months and just changed battery, in both keys, strangely enough, one is brand new and hasn't be used, just kept as a stand-by. Perhaps battery deteriorates even though it is not being used.
@@davidjfraser my car is just over 18 months old and now also the car battery itself has failed and is stuck in dealership why they do a warranty claim. They are replacing the key fob batteries also out of courtesy.
If you have kessy key need more power than normal key
put in a 2032 battery last three times longer than a 2025
What about thicknesses? "The 2032 is 3.2mm thick while the 2025 is 2.5mm thick."
It's a squeeze but no problem
@@palhod I replaced the battery with a 2032 Duracell and it was too thick to get past the small plastic clip that holds the battery in place, however the cover on the key fob does the trick and it seems to be working fine
@@ShaamoneHeeHee same on me. Just press harder and it will hold the thicker 2032
thanks! the 2032 doesnt fit just in case
It did for me lmao
@@fuhrerhosty I will try again then, maybe I just didn’t put it properly
Mine didn't fit under the small plastic holder, so I just press harder on the plastic case and all good. 2032 is a few millimetres thicker than the original 2025. I read that 2032 is more powerful and will last longer. Good luck
@@danilie6742 i since then did that too ;)
Don't understand this.At the end he says this was a disaster.Did it not work doesn't look like
like
škoda Auta
Da sa tam napchat aj 2032ka .... tunning 😂😂😂
zašto je naslov videa na hrvatskom a, u videu govoriš engleski
Rociola here jer je naslov i opis lokaliziran na Hrvatski
Это называется батарейка, а не аккумулятор.
Ты ещё и в Ютубе всем мозги е#ешь
Ты мозг
The fact that you need to change the battery pisses me off. Had Toyota for 12 years, never once changed. Brand new Superb, ans changing the battery after 2 years. Skoda is junk, just don't do it
Ruce práci nezvyklé,slabounké,zženštělé,zbytečné.marné.
Thank you!
Thanks!
