Note - I have heard on some discussion boards that you have to do the swap in under 20 seconds or the key will need ‘re-programming’ by the main dealer - I did not find this to be the case personally - Mine was ok, I probably took around 2 to 3 minutes to change mine without issue.

Gareth I can hear you are welsh. I’m wondering if you can help me with my c30 key?

I left mine dismantled for about 30 minutes while I took a dump....it was fine.

Thanks for this - Just saved myself a few quid - I dread to think what the dealers charge for this!

Thanks very much Gareth . No problem changing battery thanks to you . All works perfectly.

Thank you Gareth. Your vídeo help me change the battery of my Volvo V50's key. 😊

If you look on the fob with the Volvo logo upright, just above the protrusion on top you can see a small indent. That indent is for prying the fob open.

Awesome ... worked like a charm ... saved me £70

Just changing a battery saved £70?

Thanks man, all the best.

thank you please note that you have to match the key compared to other years and models i thought this was a 2032 battery but after matching the exact key fob the 2450 is the right one and i saved myself a extra trip to the store and a battery that would not fit.

Thanks for your advice all worked ok

Great video. Sorted. Thanks .

Well done.

Thank you

I did replace mine recently with a new battery cos the previous one was dead and ever since it’s refuse to work with my volvo S40 2008, please what should I do? I’m so pissed about this.

Cheers for that.

Thanks mate 🇬🇧🇬🇧🇬🇧🇵🇰🇵🇰🇵🇰

My car wouldn't open, like at all, so I got inside with the manual key and then tried to start the car, but 0 power. So no idea if it's the car battery or the key fob battery.

That sounds like the car battery

I did this and still doesn't work. I didn't get a notification. It just stopped working. I assume it was the battery. 2008 C70, any suggestions.

I've had to change mine several times over the years I usually get a warning when it's about to go. That's really odd. May be an electronics issue with the key that needs investigating. Does the spare still work ok?

I have a 2008 C70 too and just followed the video. The old battery was removed for a couple minutes while I opened the packaging for the new battery. No issues on my end.

Do you still have the C30?
