Key reprogramming

Featured Replies

Hi all

Recently got A 2019 A5 it came with 2 key fobs 1 not working replaced battery can see led flashing on fob but not operating car have checked on info screen and says 2 keys programmed question is do I have to go an audi dealer to have it reprogrammed 

Thanks for any info 

Hello Nev,

Thanks for joining the forum and posting your query.

No doubt you have tried the procedures listed on on-line searches. If not, they are worth a try, but I’ve failed with all of them. 
You mention you have recently bought the car - from a main dealer? - other retailer? If so, I would be first seeking assistance there, since it’s reasonable to expect that both fobs should be working, and if not, rectified at their expense. 
Car is 2019 - still just under warranty? Might be worth a try if so. 
All else fails, then it sounds like you will need the assistance of an independent to re-programme the fob. 
Perhaps you could let us know how you get on Nev. 

Kind regards,

Gareth. 

 

I'd second what magnet has suggested, and report back as part of key programming can be done with VCDS.

Hello Nev,

Many thanks for ‘liking’ the response, but are you now able to colour your responses to the suggestions/questions raised? 
Kind regards,

Gareth.
