      Hi Sir, You changed last digital from 0 to 1 that is different number with the picture you took from the battery and why the test is still successful? Do you need change it back to 0 or not? many thanks.

    They could just as easily have a reset function, like the oil change and Inspection reset. The system just needs to know that the part is new.
    The fact that they look for part#, vendor code, and serial # is to reinforce the idea that you must have a genuine Audi part. This will work on many folks who do not know better, and go to the dealer and drop $350 on a batt that can be had for $150.
    I have a family member who recently went to Benz dealer for her car and way, way overpaid for a battery. And the dealer reinforced the idea with her, that you should never use a 3rd party batt in your car, " because it will cause so many problems" .... Marketing BS.
    Knowledge is power.

    You're absolutely correct but a lot of people don't know and it does work cuz I'm a mechanic too if you have a power source plug it into the cigarette lighter make sure you have a power jump box of boost one that actually could charge to a lot of connections to connect the power source to the two terminals of the jump box and then disconnect your battery and you won't lose any of your data connected back you won't even have to program it I do it all the time

    Guys, I changed the battery on my 2012 Audi A6 without reprograming the code, which was years ago. The battery works fine and still going great! I got the battery from Costco for about $150. I don't think the coding does anything other than to scare you enough so that you pay the dealer $450 to do it. As an electrical engineer, I measured the charging voltage during charge and the end of charge. There is little Audi can do to screw up a lead-acid battery.

    Requiring a serial number to change a battery is stupid, the car already knows how much voltage the alternator outputs, days and mileage since last battery service, all it needs is a “Reset Battery Life” option in the same service menu as the oil change and brake pad resets.

      You can just make a serial number up. So long as the car sees a new serial number it will recognise it as a different battery. Common advice is to just change the last digit. A option in the service menu would be convenient though.

      Tbh they should've made batteries last the life of the cars by now. Even Tesla is only now starting to do it for the 12V system. Lead acid technology is as old as cars are. A typical gas car could do just fine with some 20Ah lithium pack. I'm waiting to see what type of battery Tesla is going to use for functionality in colder climates.

    Wonder if I could get your professional opinion. The battery in my A7 died suddenly, no slow decay, just one day wouldn't turn on and was sitting at basically 0V. After some research and decidedly not wanting to spend $400 on a battery recode, I decided to hook the car up to a charger and then hot swapped the battery while the system was running from the charger. I did this in case Audi would notice and acknowledge the disconnecting of the old battery and potentially stop me from driving with an non-official replacement; just being overly cautious. I do however have an OBD11 but did not know I could recode it myself, do you recommend this now a few thousand miles after the initial replacement?

    I changed the battery on my 2016 VW Tiguan SEL. Do I need to reprogram?

    FWIW I tried to follow this and it would not take the serial, even with the spaces and also trying to use the random # thing for the serial numbers after the mfr code. I ended up having to use may clunky hand scan tool to perform the function.

    im just not sure i can buy into it ... so you are saying the car can "sense" an old degraded battery and increase the power output for a dying battery .. but then again cant " sense" the output of a new battery and will overcharge it ? .. it it just me ?

    It’s slightly different on a A6 2014. I got the tool from the description. Any tips for that?

    What to do if the battery has no Bem code. It say on the last part of the video. So basically just copy those number and change a couple? I tried so many scanner but none of them work. I will try this obd2 that you using. You only need to pay for that device then nothing more?
    Also I just want to Add. I have 2013 audi A4. The first 3 years I swapped the battery without registering it. I used autozone battery agm. They most expensive one they have $250. Believe it or not 6 years still running. After 6 years still tested good but I replaced it anyways. I just found that battery only last 3-5 years so I replaced mine eventhough still running good just to have peace of mind. Now I just need to figure out how to register autozone battery. It lasted 6 years the last time without register so I guess I’m good hopefully

    How do you perform a physical boost leak test on a Mk7 GTI? I did mine incorrectly and some oil shot out my timing chain cover because I didn't leave my oil filler off. Please make a video on this .

    Should this be done on VW as well? I don’t know about batteries 😬

    Can low battery cause a low circuit pedal throttle position sensor code to appear with a epcnlight.

    If there’s no ECM like shown, do you still have to recode ?

    I think that “ecm” in the trunk was a sportdiff control module.

    What if I started the car before I programmed the new battery? I did the adaptation after and now the car is running like is has a vacuum leak. Please help!

    We are getting to a point that you will have to reprogram your weight to the car in order to run properly. And I eat a double meat cheeseburger, you will need to reprogram that as well. Do not add the bacon to the burger, or else the car won’t start, and will tell you. “U need to go walking (Audi voice)”

    Hi Dan , Are you suppose to remove the electrical connector on the negative
    battery post before reconnecting ? And then plug in after connected?

    Also after the U hit space, this goes for any letter or digit at the end. I couldn't get it to accept my new numbers then I hit space and it accepted.

    Heya Dap, isn’t there another easier way, via Gateway > adaptation > battery adaptation ? Instead of the long adaptation?

    even replacing a old battery by the exact same new battery with the exact same BEM does required a recode?
