Audi car batteries are located beneath the spare tire in the trunk. Lift the trunk floor panel and remove the spare tire to access it. The Audi A4L requires a battery that supports start-stop functionality, and it's recommended to use the original factory model for replacement - specifically the AGM-H9-105AH battery. Below is a guide for replacing the battery in an Audi A4L: 1. First, open the trunk lid and remove the cover panel, then take out the spare tire. 2. The battery will now be visible; loosen the securing bolts to detach it. 3. Installation is relatively straightforward - ensure the positive and negative terminals are correctly connected to the battery, with the remaining steps following the reverse order of removal. Important note: It's best to perform a battery replacement without power interruption (owners should not attempt this themselves), as disconnecting power will erase all electronic data stored in the instrument panel, including driver settings, trip records, and date information, all of which would need to be manually reset.

The battery of an Audi car is typically hidden under the trunk or luggage compartment floor, as in my A4's design. Simply open the trunk, lift the floor mat or remove the spare tire and foam padding, and you'll find a covered battery compartment—unscrew it to reveal the battery. This placement optimizes weight distribution and minimizes engine bay heat exposure to extend battery life, especially in common models like the A3 and A6. Finding it under the hood is rare, possibly only in some older S-series models. Before handling, always turn off the engine and all electronics, and wear insulated gloves to prevent electric shock. Though easily accessible yet discreet, replacing the battery takes just a few minutes with a wrench.

My car is an Audi Q5, and I initially thought the battery was under the hood—I searched everywhere but couldn’t find it. Later, I learned it’s actually under the trunk floor. Most Audis nowadays are designed this way: lift the trunk mat, move aside a foam block, and you’ll see the battery casing. This clever layout prevents overheating damage, makes replacement easier, and offers dust and shock protection. The exact position may vary slightly by model, so new owners should check the manual or search for illustrated tutorials online. For safety, always turn off the engine and disconnect power before handling. Regularly inspect the terminals to prevent oxidation from affecting performance. Though hidden, the setup is straightforward—DIY is no hassle.

Audi batteries are generally located under the trunk floor mat. After lifting it, if you see the spare tire, remove it, and then you'll find the battery cover. Unscrew it to access the battery. In some older models, the battery might be located under the hood, though this is less common. Always turn off the engine before operating to prevent short circuits. The design positions the battery away from heat sources to extend its lifespan. Just check the manual to confirm any model-specific differences.
