Last time I changed the battery in my Touareg key fob myself, and it felt quite simple. The steps are: first locate the small gap on the back of the key, then gently pry open the casing using a small screwdriver or coin - be careful not to apply too much force and break the clips. Inside you'll find a button battery, typically a CR2032 model which you can easily buy new at supermarkets or online. Remove the old battery, insert the new one with the positive side facing up (don't install it backwards), then align and snap the casing back together until you hear a click. After replacing the battery, remember to test the remote lock button to ensure proper functionality. Doing it yourself saves money - shops might charge dozens of yuan, but the process only takes minutes. You can even use a thin key as a tool substitute. After a few tries, you'll get the hang of it.
