ok so like the title says, i need to reprogram my FOB but heres the catch this is for the 1996 model which had the seperate remote with two buttoms for unlock and lock.

 

i didnt even know you could

 

oh theres definetly a way, i had he directions a while ago but lost them. ive literally spent almost 3 years looking for a new FOB remote. i know FML.

 

wait are you talking about the flip key or the separate fob
im looking for both right now for you

 

scroll down the page, it's call "Keyless Entry Replacement ('96 A4)" on the DIY page, http://www.audiworld.com/tech/elec.html, scroll down and it'll tell you how to do it



edit: sorry guys, i forgot to link the page lol. it's there now though

 

uhh, never mind, right after i made my last post i went to try programming and my brother thinking he knew what hes doing started the car in gear and ran through my garage door in the process and teh remote in my hand got run over. still find me those instructions, for the seperate key FOB, and yes i am in shock so i want those instructions.

 

^^^Uhh scroll down where???? what page?

 

The following instructions are to reprogram your switchblade key fob.

1. Take a spare key and insert it into the ignition. Turn it one click forward.

2. Roll down your window just in case. Step outside the car, and lock the car with a second key.

3. With your second key fob press the unlock button. The lights should flash.

4. Now lock the car with the key fob, and then unlock it.

5. Remove the key from the lock and the key from the ignition, and try it's function

 

updated my original post. again i apologize.

crazyhawk, that only works with a switchblade

 

Here's what i did (for my 2 button seperate remote)

Procedure

1. Switch Ignition ON and leave the key in the ignition.
2. Mechanically lock the vehicle using the Drivers door using a second key.
3. Using the remote control press the Unlock button once, and the horn will sound once.
4. Wait 6 seconds and press the unlock button once to activate the coding
procedure. The remote control will now be programmed.

NOTE : When performing programming on additional remotes the procedure
is the same, except you press the unlock button 2, 3 or 4 times for the
different remote.
For example : If programming 2 remotes press the unlock button twice with
a 1 second interval between each press, repeat for 3 and 4 remotes.

5. Switch Ignition OFF.
6. Remove key from ignition and check for operation.
7. The coding procedure can be repeated up to 4 times for additional remotes.
8. The ignition must be switched OFF between programming each remote
control.



And if your car didn't come originally with a remote, you have to activate it through VAG-COM, or else it won't work.
