Hi, Anyone know how to open the 3 button fob on a 2002 VW Passat to change the batteries. Regards Peter

Flip out the key and about half-way down the blade recess, there's a notch that allows a screwdriver in to separate the two halves of the fob.

Yes I spotted that but was unsure. I assume it is the same as the old 2 button and uses two 2032 SOxide Cells. Regards Peter
