We get asked about key coding very regularly. The main cost of key coding is the actual key. With Audi charging £350 for a single new key to be coded on an A4 it’s not surprising many people aren’t replacing their lost keys.
There are not many people other than Audi who can do the job so they know they have the market to themselves.
Luckily, here at RD Garage Services we have invested in the Genuine VW Audi group diagnostic computer and software to allow up to carry out things like key coding.
An example is a 2011 Audi A4 key where we saved a customer over £100 off the cost from Audi using a genuine Audi key coded to their car while they waited.
Please be aware, the keys are cut in Germany to your vehicle chassis number and take 7-10 working days to arrive.
