Hi

Can anyone give me a step by step guide for replacing the battery on a superb 3 exec model?

( I mean the procedure for pairing the new battery with the onboard electronics. I know how to do the spanner work)

Thanks!

John

Interesting statement, it is a very easy DIY task if you have the cable. I've had a VCDS Cable for ages, in fact for so long its a VAGCOM cable, and have done this coding loads of times for mine and other vehicles. It is very simple to do. If all the battery parameters stay the same then all you need to do is change the battery serial number to reset the charging profile. I've read loads of talk on it not even being necessary, I have no knowledge of the truth there and just do the coding anyway.
My Yeti I changed from EFB to AGM which is a better type of stop/start battery any not much more to buy, so that had the battery type, amp hour and serial number to change.
