Steve Q Posted January 28, 2018 Share Posted January 28, 2018 Hi Chris, the answer is unfortunately not. But if it's any consolation it's cheaper for us with older Audi's whereas owners with newer Audi's has to.pay alot more. Cheers Steve Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FrenchAvant Posted February 2, 2018 Share Posted February 2, 2018 There was only one key for my 1996 A4 B5 when I bought it, as the previous owner was deceased, and I bought from his heirs. Audi here in France quoted me a very high figure for more keys, I think it was over €300, but I found a specialist who cut and coded two keys for €50 each. There was no code available for them via the diagnostic system, as my car predates codes being stored in the ECU. He was able to read the code directly from the old key and reproduce the keys and chips on his rather clever machine. If you contact a car locksmith you may be able to get keys made rather cheaper than from Audi. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
