car in question S4 B6

key fob suddenly stopped working this morning and also i can't even get into the car by just using the key in the door for some reason.

don't have a spare key either :(

changed the battery and still the same. any ideas ?
 
Your car might have lost the codes so it won't recognise your key or the key might have lost the code .. Can you open the boot ??
 
Have you tried putting the key in the door lock and pressing the lock and unlock buttons .. Like you would when you put the key in the ignition and doing the same
 
the key won't even go in the door I'm afraid but yes i can open to boot with it which is strange
 
You sure your problem is your key fob as you said your key won't go in the door ..sounds like your lock has stuck

IM IN!!! :)

lock was ceased, I've not used it via key in the lock since I've owned it which is 2 years, took some force and WD40 to loosen it up.

now I can get in I'm guessing ill have to sync the fob with the car to use the fob again.

thanks for the help
