Adaptation of vehicle keys: Notes

WARNING: This page does not describe the selected car, but rather 12 other vehicles, including the 2005 Audi allroad, 2004 Audi allroad, 2004 Audi A6, 2003 Audi allroad, and 2003 Audi S6. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.
NOTE:
  • If new or additional ignition keys are required, they must be adapted to the anti-theft immobilizer.
  • All ignition keys, including those that were previously authorized, must be re-adapted.
  • Especially when a key has been lost, all vehicle keys should be re-adapted, since this will render the lost key unauthorized for vehicle start.
  • If it is not possible to adapt all keys for some reason, i.e. during a trip, the customer must have this done later at his/her local Audi dealership.
  • The number of adapted keys is indicated after selecting the adaptation function (channel 21) and also in measuring value block 022.
  • Adaptation can be interrupted using the "C" button.
  • Once a key is adapted, it is locked and cannot be adapted to another immobilizer system.
