Default Anyone knows how to re-coding a copy key?

I have got a cut key from dealer, but no re-coding yet. Just want to save money. I have successfully reprogram the 3 buttons remotes. But the new only can open the door, I can not start the engine. the Electronic immobilizer on dashboard is continuously flashing. So anyone knows how to re-coding the key?

You probably will have to go to the dealer for that. If you call around there may be a good independant shop that can do it for you but for the most part its a dealer only type thing.

you gotta take it to a dealer. theres no independant that can program keys for cars with immobiliizer. the dealer does it by using and internet connection to the vw/audi database in germany then transmits the info through the scanner to your car. theres no more pins #'s. for the techs to even see with the new geko system. thats the condensed version anyway.
