Audi shares Volkswagen's security architecture but adds more component protection on top, and the higher-end MLB-platform cars are among the harder mainstream vehicles to key.

The practical result is that an Audi with no working keys needs equipment most vans do not carry. Owners are routinely quoted a tow plus a dealer appointment several days out.

All-keys-lost Audis come through here regularly, not as a rare exception.

Key options for your Audi

Component protection

Audi cryptographically pairs modules to the vehicle. Replacement components require adaptation before the car will run correctly.

Comfort access

Keyless Audis need the key written to the comfort access system as well as the immobilizer, or proximity unlock will not work even though the car starts.

Module removal required

Later models frequently require the module to come out for all-keys-lost work, which is handled on site.

Audi key questions

Do I need to tow my Audi to the dealer for a new key?

No. A new key gets generated at your car, including on all-keys-lost cars where the security data has to be read from a module.

How long does an Audi key take?

Adding a spare while you still have a working key is usually 30 to 45 minutes. All-keys-lost on a later model is a two to three hour job.

Will an aftermarket Audi key work as well as the original?

For most models yes, and every function is tested before payment. On some platforms only a genuine key will accept programming, in which case the genuine part is supplied and the price reflects it.
