All a3 8v imported in USA have extra panic button at key fob. Unfortunatelly the us keys work at 314 mhz and eu key work at 434 mhz. So the us keys does not work to EU cars. I open my eu key, ( my key has keyless access) and i saw on key board that there is place for micro switch and smd resistor.
IS IT POSSIBLE ANY MEMBER LOCATED TO US MEASURE HIS KEY AND LET ME KNOW HOW MANY OHMM IS THE RESISTOR?
The micro switch place it located with GREEN color and the resistor place with RED.
I believe that if i add a micro switch and a resistor the panic button will work.
I have to order a case with panic button from ebay with 5 euros : https://rover.ebay.com/rover/0/0/0?mpre=https://www.ebay.com/ulk/itm/152721995295
My car has factory alarm amd keyless access.
THANKS IN ADVANCE

If you manage to get this working make sure you change the delay time to something like 4 seconds so as to avoid accidental alarm triggers:

- 09 - Central Electric
- Adaptations
- Anti-theft device-Verzoegerung Panikalarm

Given that you are from Greece and here (am in Greece at the moment) OEM alarms are not a standard option, it might be an idea to confirm that you actually do indeed have an Audi alarm.
