I had 1 key fob working & the other wasnt. Audi reprogrammed the 1 that wasnt, so I had 2 fobs that worked (happy days). A month later I go out to the car & the fob doesn't work.so I go to get the spare & this doesnt work either. I have done nothing to the car.
I've been in to the audi dealer who have said (due to the led in the drivers door) there is a fault in the central locking that needs to be rectified, & once done if the keys don't work, its the thing that controls the central locking (in passenger foot well - as this could have got wet). They have said the central locking fault would have caused the fobs to stop working
They suggested my boot lock as the cause & suggested as a starting point replacing the solenoid & actuator & boot lock to see if this rectifies the central locking issue. They were suggesting my failed rear wiper could have leaked wash through the boot causing the boot lock failure.
If that did not rectify the key fobs not working then they suggested the replacing the (whatever its called) in passenger foot well - at an estimated cost of £800-£1200..
Has anyone any advice, or experience of this, as I want to get it fixed asap
Thanks
