Audi Keys and Remotes
Audi are VAG groups premium brand, and as such create some additional challenges in the key programming process due to their higher levels of electronic complexity and additional security protocols.
Many Audi models use Smart keys rather than traditional remote or transponder keys and the picture is complicated further by the use of electronic steering locks and the “component security” concept- a form of distrubuted coding throughout the modules present in the vehicle network designed to prevent theft and substitution of parts.
We are able to supply and code keys for these cars without the delay of ordering them to VIN number.
Audi, like many other automakers, offers a range of key systems for their vehicles. Here's an overview of the key options you might find in Audi cars:
- Traditional Keys: Older Audi models may come with traditional keys that you insert into the ignition to start the car. These keys may or may not have remote locking and unlocking functions.
- Smart Keys: Many modern Audi vehicles come equipped with smart key systems. These keys use advanced technology and typically allow for keyless entry and ignition. The smart key communicates with the car's system when in proximity, and you can start the car by pressing a button rather than inserting a key into the ignition.
- Proximity Keys: Audi, like other luxury car manufacturers, often employs proximity keys. With a proximity key, as long as the key is within a certain range, you can unlock the car by touching the door handle and start the engine with the push of a button.
- Audi Advanced Key: Audi offers an Advanced Key system in some models, which combines keyless entry, keyless start, and other features. With the Advanced Key, you can unlock, start, and drive your Audi without taking the key out of your pocket or purse.
