Its at the dealer, they asked me to take all the keys there because some program ( or something) is wrong.
Its not the battery, all that Im saying ( as Goldmembre said ) is that there are too many malfunctions if the battery is out...
mine is not.

Default Many subsystems are designed by Tier 2 suppliers, so surprises

can occur. Meeting design criteria is often (as you know) not enough in the real world.

Default The veredict

Well seems that the problem was the steering column. ?? The dealer said it fail and the electronics tought i was trying to steal the car, so everyting got locked up.
the part is $ 900 audi gave me 70% discount, plus labor, its going to be close to $ 700
(not bad), two weeks wait for the part since its very abnormal for it to fail.
Giving the circumstamnces, I would say it wasnt a design problem, it did what it was suppose to do, it just fail to recognize its real owner
Thanks for all the inputs I learned a lot.
