  • Hi, this video shows you how to access the hidden key hole lock on a VW Golf Mk7 2015 model. Other Volkswagen will have a similar procedure. This is useful if your key fob stops working or if you have drained your battery and can't get access via the central locking.
    Many thanks Vince

    Thanks. I was having a hard time figuriing out how to put the cap back on properly. I know see that the latch should be pulled first, the cap snapped into place and then the latch let go.

    I could have used this today. I picked up my new (used) 2017 Golf Sportvan today from the dealership, and I decided to take the new looking key with me and leave the used looking one in the car. Well turns out the new looking one's battery died. So I had to scramble to find out what battery the key used (CR2025), changed the battery in the key and then got back to my car before the parking time was up (15 minutes). I made it! :D

    A friend at work borrowed his g/f's Golf because his was in for repairs. He drove to work so all was good but later he couldn't open it with the fob. We couldn't find the keyhole. So, we watched this vid.
    The key went in but it didn't turn. He was flummoxed. He was halfway though saying that it was the only key when he realised that the fob he was trying to use was his, not his g/f's.
    I told him he was a dickhead and walked off laughing.
    The vid is very useful.

    But might do the long walk to work later and use my second keyfob. I'll check anyway if the car has a slot under the handle to pop it open. Don't know if I wanna test it because of the alarm....

    I always take my spare key with me on holiday in case the battery dies suddenly (also handy if I happen to lose it). I just realised today (after having the car 4 years) that it will start with no battery in the key fob !

    When people think futuristic designs are good, but functionality fails. Cars should be intuitive. When a trunk needs to be opened from inside, jusr put a latch. Forr door handles, just put a damn key hole. WTF.
