[QUOTE="solo, post: 498610, member: 18358"] The battery inside the key is a rechargable Panasonic VL2020. It can be bought from the Panasonic service center. It will cost about RM32. To change the battery you will have to carefully cut open the key, unsolder the battery holder then unsolder the battery from the battery holder. Instructions to do all this can be found here - [url]http://www.bimmerfest.com/forums/showthread.php?t=315311[/url] or [url]http://forum.e46fanatics.com/showthread.php?t=451510[/url] or [url]http://www.forums.bimmerfest.com/showthread.php?p=5707861[/url] or [url]http://www.bmwclubmalaysia.com/forums/showthread.php?36644-diamond-shape-remote-key[/url] You can also use a normal 2032 or 2025 battery and replace it when it goes flat. But you will need to dremel screw holes so you can replace the battery easily. There's a DIY for that here - [url]http://www.bimmerboard.com/forums/posts/124181[/url] Anyway, follow the instructions, it can be done because my dad and I did it. Salut [/QUOTE]
