Audi Q3 Battery Replacement and Reset

In this video I replace the battery in an Audi Q3. The new battery must be matched to the vehicle, and this can be performed with a scanner. I used an aftermarket battery and used a Launch CRP429 to do the battery matching in the Audi Q3. The battery terminals are held in place with 10mm nuts, there is one hold down bolt, and there is an electrical connector on the negative battery terminal.

First gen Q3s are from 2015 to 2018. The bolts that hold the battery are 10mm but the bolt that holds the grommet is 9/16 not 10mm. For 2016 and up you will also need a star bit set to remove the battery housing. The bolt hold down is difficult to get to and has been repositioned inside the housing of the battery not outside like this model.

Hey There if you look at wiki they say 2015-2018 (North America) and production was 2011-2018. The one that I was working on was a 2015 so I'm thinking that had to be when the 1st gen started in North America.

@@GarageKingYeah I see there was an earlier production. I corrected my comment. 😊 I was working on two of these and they were quite different in how Audi tried to contour the housing so the hold down bolt is not as accessible.

What scanning tool are you using?

@GarageKing Жыл бұрын

Hi There, I used an older Launch CRP429 to do this job, but have since upgraded to a newer Launch scanner. I actually did a review on it. kzfaq.info/get/bejne/oMWIrKigtNPHn5c.html

What kind of battery did you put in

@GarageKing Жыл бұрын

Hey there sorry for the late reply. I’m out camping. I just bought an aftermarket battery. I think it was an energizer.

Will it still give you the same error if you don't reprogram it? Ie, good battery bad code?

not sure as I always use the scanner to replace a battery

what is the size for the hold down bolt?

@GarageKing Жыл бұрын

Hey there, I think the head size was 13mm, I can't remember what the pitch and width was.

@Mike-dt1yg 6 ай бұрын

@@GarageKing that's correct, I used your video yesterday and it is a 13mm socket. The two clamps going into the battery terminals are 10mm.

1st gen, 2015? Strange, my Q3 is 2012…

@GarageKing 4 ай бұрын

Yes, your 2012 is a first gen just like the 2015, Second gen did not appear until 2018. You can just search Audi Q3 on wikipedia if you wish. Thanks

is it necessary to do the relearn process?

@GarageKing Жыл бұрын

Hey There, I think you have to or the centre indicator may say "replace battery soon" like the oil service light.

@gtr161 Жыл бұрын

@@GarageKing My Audi is a 2013 Q3, so far there hasn't been any notice to 'replace battery soon', but I know its on the way out. If I dont have the warning, do I need to go through the relearn process?

@GarageKing Жыл бұрын

Hey that for the comment @gtr161 and you know I never really thought about it. To be honest I really don't know and I don't want to give you the wrong information. Personally I would think that when the battery is replace the relearn process should be done, but if you don't have a scanner then I would say just change the battery and see what happens. Worst case you are just going to get a message for the relearn.

look how to reset it

Possible there was another way, but I did it with the scanner

This is why dealers charge $800 just to reprogram a damn battery.

@GarageKing 7 ай бұрын

$800 is crazy, even if they were charging $200 per hour, it should not be more than 1hr labour, and then add the cost of the battery.
