Hello, I have a 2015 Audi Q7, I have a compustar remote start in it, I want to upgrade the compustar remote, but how would I program it? I hope I don't need a obd II scanner to do, its push to start, All that has to be programmed is lock/unlock.
Hi. Sorry I'm not sure. The procedure here is for the OEM key fobs, not aftermarket or 3rd party ones. I would suggest you reach out to compustar for assistance. Cheers.
Hi, I have an Audi A4 2021 with same key style. 2 keys programmed. All of a sudden 1 has stopped working, battery is fine. Any ideas or will I need to take to Audi approved dealer to go through the procedure from you video? Many thanks for any advice you can give.
Hi. Does the car still say two keys are initialized on the vehicle? Go to mmi, car, servicing and checks and then car information. If it says two (and not one) then it shoukd work. Also keep the good working key a long way from vehicle and put the problem key on the little key symbol in the arm rest or in the cup holder (depending on your vehicle) and try to start the car. If it starts then the key is good and check the battery again. Also use Duracell or Panasonic batteries
You have to be VW Group approved to have the software and login to Audi Germany. To be approved you have to apply via application and be a car workshop, insurance, etc etc.
I have bought an s8 qith 3 keys programmed on the MMI. Physically I have only two of which one works and the other doesn't. I have changed the battery but still doesn't work. Any ideas?
Hi, have you confirmed the metal blade portion of the car key fits in the driver door lock and opens and closes the car ok? It could be a key from another car and they just gave you two keys but really only one is for the car.
I have a 2016 b9 A4 bought couple years ago with 2 keys. Both were working until I took it to Audi for DSG oil change and now one isnt working anymore. Any solution to this? Audi asking for a fee to diagnose and when they find out what is the cause I'd then pay to fix it 😢
Hi There. Hard to tell other than checking if the car still says 2 keys are registered to the vehicle under "Settings / Car Information". Also, check the battery is the right way up in the key, lastly - keep the working key far away from the car and put the key that doesnt work on the emergency key reader in the centre console and try to start the engine. if it starts then the key is linked to the vehicle and its most likely just the battery in the key that needs replacing. Cheers.
@@blaqhebrew yep - so sounds like you need to take it back with both keys and the dealer will re-link both keys to the vehicle (the keys do not need replacing).

You said you had to login to Audi to place the car into learn mode to learn the keys. Can you share what site that was where you registered with Audi?

@@audiupgrades8745 thanks. The car now reads only one key registered instead of 2 (used to read 2 before taking it for service).

Wow. The guy was very humble and passive about the constructive criticism. Says a lot and a very rare and mature demeanor. Shows intelligence!
