Hi Folks, quick question about the battery in my 2007 2.0 Tdi. Looks like the battery is needing replaced but I have seen conflicting reports about whether the new battery needs some coding or not? Do you know if I can just swap it out without any problems? Thanks

Hi!
Yes. It is need. It is easy with vag-com.
Procedure:
[Select] [61 - Battery Regulation] [Coding - 07] Use the pull down menu to select the battery (slave) listed as #1.
[Battery Coding] Enter the new Battery Part Number (10 or 11 digits).
Enter the new Battery Serial Number (10 digits).
Select the new Battery Vendor. [OK] [Do it!]
[Close Controller, Go Back - 06] .
If your new battery isn't original, it doesn't have code but you can enter other code of old battery or code partner's batery.
What specifications does your batery have?
I can find a code for you.

Hi Rav thanks for the info - the battery that is currently in the car is a Varta 95Ah 450 A DIN 760. Do you know what happens if the coding is not done? Does it create problems or do you just lose the extra battery regulation features?
