2 Answers
Under normal circumstances, the battery of the Tiggo 8 key can last for 2 to 3 years. However, the actual duration depends on the frequency of use. The specific details are as follows: 1. If the key is used frequently every day, the battery life will be shorter; 2. Generally, the battery of a car key is a button cell, which has a relatively long usage cycle; 3. Typically, this battery can last for more than 3 years. If you include the spare key, it can usually last until the owner changes the car; 4. If the key runs out of power, the battery needs to be replaced. There are two ways to replace the battery: (1) You can replace the battery at a 4S store; (2) Specialized repair shops also offer related services.
I've been driving the Tiggo 8 for almost three years now, and the key fob battery has really held up well. Generally, the original CR2032 coin cell can last one to two years without issues, depending on usage habits. If you commute daily and frequently lock/unlock the car, you might need to replace it in about a year. Once, I forgot to check, and the battery nearly drained in cold winter—remote range dropped by half, but luckily it didn’t cause any trouble. I recommend keeping a spare battery in the car to avoid sudden malfunctions. Also, avoid exposing the key to high temperatures, like direct sunlight, to extend its lifespan. Regularly test the key button response; if it feels sluggish, replace the battery promptly to prevent issues.
