Default LOST MY CAR KEY
I lost my last copy of my A4 audi key. The car is a 1998.5.

Where can I get a CHEAP new key?

How much will audi charge to cut it?

Default get the code number and go to the dealer and have them cut ONE copy
after that get on ebay and order blank remotes and go from there.

Default The dealer can't code cut you a key based off your VIN number...
They have to order you a pre-cut key from the factory/warehouse. I usually recommend to customers to buy a cheap valet version of the key, then once it arrives have the dealer trace cut you a master key.
