Default Raise the alarm

I cant seem to use the remote locking in my car.
The central locking works fine and the key was supplied with the car...so i doubt im going to have to recode it.

I checked about my remote locking with the Audi agency and he sugested that it might be a problem with the central locking pump... how can I check ?

Default Did you try another key or new batteries yet?

I've had my remote fail, had to replace it.

If you can lock/unlock the car with the key in the door (i.e. it does all the locks properly) then the vacuum pump is working.

Bentley's has a procedure to check the central lock pump. It's a lot of pages.
