How long before battery change in Key Fob ?
Anyone have to change the battery in their Key Fob ?
If so how long did the original battery last ? What type battery is needed ? Thanks |
In my '13 the battery is rechargeable when inserted in the car. However, when not used for a long time it can go flat. I change back and forth between my two fobs every oil change.

With the F56 the battery is not rechargeable.

The car will let you know when it detects the battery getting low and they are easy to replace. The cover on the back pops off and you replace it with a standard button cell battery (a CR2030 or something) |

Yea, they should last a while my r56 one lasted a long time the CA ( comfort access ) battery did need changed once. Just switch the keys every so often.
Its a CR2032 battery https://www.ecstuning.com/Search/SiteSearch/ES2682246/ https://cimg6.ibsrv.net/gimg/www.nor...1fdbdbedb9.jpg |
??? Photo shows a CR2025 battery...narrative states a CR2032. Is there a difference between the two?

Amperage difference and thickness. In some applications you can use either, not sure about your key fob however.
