You might just want to take it to the dealer. I had the same problem and they got stuck in there becuase it wasn't the right key for it. It only costs 75 to get the code from the dealer.

I had a similar problem a while back. The car was purchased with the code missing. I wanted to get the code read out as well but I saw an offer over at ECS tuning for a symphoni II radio: http://www.ecstuning.com/Audi-C5_A6-...ereo/ES365825/
and it's only $38. Not only did I get the code but also a way better working stereo. The base was deeper, the cassette player working properly and reading all CD's again even the scratched ones. |
Yeah he could do that, but if which one do you have? Bose, symphoney 1 or 2?
|
Exactly the one I posted - Symphony 2 and my a6 c5 4.2 has the Bose system.
Also bought a set of removal tools: first I bought a pair from Walmart and then realized, this thing is so huge I need 4, ordered a 2nd pair. Worked like a charm. |
yeah i have a bose also its a 2.8 2001. But i wonder what type is the guy that posted the wuestion? they are wired different

Congrats my fellow avant owner. That motor is pretty bullet proof as long as you change the oil and do routine maintenance. (Definition of "routine maintenance" is questionable. ;))
I have to admit, it is one of the most versatile car that I have ever owned. Good choice. |
Well you said it's a Bose then it's a Bose. Symphony 1 and 2 are different types of radios. I have a Bose. What is the vin number of the car? so i can make sure what model it is?
