Default CURIOUS CODES?

We took our newly acquired delight to the local Audi garage because only one key would start the engine. 'No problem', they said. 'Just drop it in and we will re-code all the keys for no charge'. Great.

In it goes and they spend three hours scratching their heads because they say the spare keys (which are the correct ones for the car) won't code. All very curious.

Has anyone any comments please.

TIA
