How to Program a Key for a Volkswagen or Audi

Model: Volkswagen Volkswagen Various
Part: Key

Video tutorial

In this video, you will see how to program the remote for a Volkswagen or Audi vehicle, using only one key. Insert the key into the ignition and turn it to position two; it is not necessary to start the engine. Ensure that the doors are securely locked from the inside; now press and hold the lock button until you see a red light flashing on the remote.

When it flashes, you can release it, and at this point, your key will be programmed. For this operation, dealers in the USA charge between £150 and £250, so this is quite a saving.
