Hey bro! If your Golf key fob's battery dies, don't force the door open. There's actually a mechanical key hidden in the back of the remote. Just press the small square on the back of the key fob and pull it out. The driver's door handle has a plastic cover - pry it open with the key tip to reveal the lock cylinder. Turning it might trigger the anti-theft alarm, but don't panic, just insert the key into the ignition and turn it twice to stop it. Remember there's a hidden key slot under the side mirror housing - you can temporarily store the key there if needed. Get the battery replaced soon - CR2032 button cells are available at convenience stores.
Hey girl, let me tell you, my Golf had the same issue! There's a hidden button on the side of the remote key—press it and pull off the silver trim to reveal the folding mechanical key. Underneath the door handle, there's a square hidden compartment. Use the tip of the key to pry open the protective cover, insert it, and twist. The car might beep when unlocking—that's just the anti-theft system alerting you, so don't panic and run off. By the way, the passenger door also has a spare keyhole, but it's even more concealed. It's best to save a locksmith's number in your phone for emergencies, especially handy when the battery dies at night.
