2 Answers
Methods to open the door when the Volkswagen Magotan car key battery dies: 1. The mechanical keyhole of the Volkswagen Magotan features a hidden design, with a cover located above the keyhole; 2. Below the cover, there is a small slot where the mechanical key can be inserted to open the cover; 3. Once opened, the mechanical keyhole becomes visible. The 2018 new Magotan has a body length of 4933mm, width of 1836mm, height of 1469mm, and a wheelbase of 2871mm. The car's side lines are smooth, with the wheelbase extended by 80mm compared to overseas models and increased by 59mm compared to the current model. In terms of the center console design, the new Magotan features neatly arranged buttons without being rigid, and adds an automatic parking function and an engine start button. The new Magotan exudes a noble overall style through extensive use of pure aluminum brushed panels, genuine wood trim, and interior flocking.
That day my car key suddenly ran out of battery and couldn't unlock the door, which was really frustrating. I remembered that the Volkswagen Magotan key has a hidden mechanical part. Upon closer inspection, I noticed a small button on the side—pressing it pops out the mechanical key. There's a small cover on the door handle; after prying it open, the keyhole is revealed. Insert the key, turn it, and the door opens. Remember to prepare spare batteries or a spare key in the car just in case. Make it a habit to check the key battery regularly, replacing it with a new one approximately every two years. If you can't find the keyhole cover, use your phone's flashlight to locate it more accurately. Never force the door open to avoid damaging the paint. This method is simple and practical—I've used it multiple times, saving the hassle of going to the repair shop. I recommend practicing your speed in advance and familiarizing yourself with your car's structure to avoid panic in emergencies.
