Default Key FOB Question

Hey Guys,


Recently bought an extra FOB key for my A4, since the delear could only find one key for my car. I already checked the code inside the key, and they both match, so I know it will work. But my question is, is there a way I can get the lock/unlock buttons working on the other remote, without the actual key blade being able to physically lock or unlock the car? I basically have 2 remotes, and only one key is actually for the car, the blade and buttons, and I want the other key to at least have the ability to lock/unlock through the buttons. Thanks.

Default no think you need both keys to do this process.

I have a feeling you use both keys in the tech section article on how to program/reprogram keys. otherwise i was thinking it may be possible to put the original in the door and the new one next to it to program the buttons, but i have a feeling no you have to use both in the ignition.

Default Is there not a way

to do it with one key? I could pop the top of the key with the blade off the working remote, and put it on the new remote to program it?

Default you're not listening. this will help you..

to do this, it says have one key ON in the ignition and one key in the door, or something and then vice-versa. So if you have one blade and one fake you are f*cked.<ul><li><a href="https://www.audiworld.com/tech/misc13.shtml">https://www.audiworld.com/tech/misc13.shtml</a</li></ul>
