Special procedures battery replacement.
All is working fine.
After 8 years on the oem battery in my 2011 a4 b8 i needed a new battery.
Audi dealer who performed warranty work on our q7 indicated battery while still good will need replacement before long.
I shopped around and read about having to re code so i called audi.
Label file 65 tire pressure.
Naturally not wanting to be stranded at some point in the next couple of months i looked into prices of batteries and watched a youtube video on how to replace it so as not to have to pay the dealer 600 to replace it.
The parts manager told me to just swap it out with no coding.
Newer q7 models don t have an actual 61 battery manager but instead have the battery management as a slave under the can gateway.
