OK, need to resync both of my remotes...Owner's manual says nothing and FAQ isn't working for me....
I've checked the owners manual, and it doesn't say how to code both of your remotes.
I can get one to code, but the second one doesn't work. I tried the FAQ, but that procedure isn't working for me either.
Anyone know how to do this?<ul><li><a href="https://www.audiworld.com/tech/misc25.shtml">FAQ on resyncing the remotes</a></li></ul>

try the '96 trick
1. put one key in the ignition in the ON position
2. put the other key in the door and turn and hold in the lock position (the doors will lock)
3. press and hold both buttons on the remote until the door unlocks.
repeat steps 2 and 3 for other remotes
theres some sort of 30 second time limit..it's pretty idiot proof though if you just follow the instructions.

I don't know where the FAQ is from, but it's not completely correct...
Here's the steps.
1. put spare key in ignition, turn ignition on.
2. shut all doors
3. lock drivers door with key/remote you want to recode, remove key.
(here's the tricky part - you have 4 electronic "slots" for keys in your control module, ie. you could have 4 different remotes (max) coded to work with the car.
4. Press the unlock button on the remote the number of times that corresponds to the "slot" number within 5 seconds of locking the door. I.e., if you are coding the third remote, press unlock 3x. The horn will sound/lights flash each time you press the unlock button. (note, if a "slot" is currently filled, you can't reprogram it, you need to use VAG-Com to clear out all the "slots")
5. wait 5 seconds. Press unlock again. the car should unlock.
6. pull the spare key out of the ignition and verify remote operation (lock/unlock)
If the above doesn't work, try doing it over, but in step 4, press unlock a different number of times.
Follow the same procedure with the second remote, but you'll need to program it into a different slot than the first one.
I just did this this weekend, this follows the procedure in the bentley manual, so I know it works.

no....because I can code both remotes, just not at the same time.
One will get coded, and then the other wont work. I code the other, then the original won't work.
