Could you tell me how to change a battery on my key fob for a 2004 Volkswagen Passat please?

Usually this has to be done extremely quickly (within 10 seconds) or the key loses its codes. So have the replacement out of its packet and ready before you dismantle the key to get the old one out.

A better drive and better equipped than the previous Passat. Comfortable and has more status than, say, a Ford Mondeo.
