If you only have 1 key, you may need to the dealer so that it can be programed. I had to do this on my '01. I don't know what kind of battery they installed because I just had them do everything since I had to take it there anyway. I bought an extra key so I wouldn't have to go through that again.

Once the battery is replacedyou will need to lock and unlock the drivers door with the key before the car will recognize the remote again.

The Audi keys don't charge when the key is in the ignition?, just wondering because my last BMW did that.
