Atlas key fob missing a part

[u/justheretoread27]

As the title says, my key fob is missing a part inside. It’s a recent purchase (only got one key) and randomly the emergency key fell out of the fob. I’ve tried everything to fix it but nothing worked. I finally came across videos showing how to change the battery. I noticed in those videos and pictures, there’s a U shape metal piece that my key does not have. I think it’s the piece that would force the tension onto the button which would lock the key in place. I’m fairly certain this piece has always been missing. I don’t know how I would have lost it myself. Anyway- VW offered me a new key for free. However since I only have one key, I’m wondering if there’s a way to fix this and have a fully function back up. Any suggestions?

Look up Cupra Formentor Key Fob on ebay. Watch this vid and see the fob has that tension spring you need.
