    Last Friday evening, tried starting my car and the engine barely turned over. Checked the voltage on the battery and I got a reading of 10.8v. The car was last used about 5 days ago and I did noticed it struggling to start but I put that down to the cold weather.

    So fast forward to today and I have brought a new battery?

    How do I replace it? from reading on the net, this doesn't sound as simple as removing the old and fitting the new!

    Thanks

    Hey bud. I'm no expert but as far as I'm aware there's a code or serial number.ber on the battery. You'll need someone with a VAG-COM to decide the brain with the new code to accept the battery.

    Not sure if I'm 100% correct on that but I know if that's how it's done on my 08 A4 B8

    It depends on the battery you buy.
