The Volkswagen smart key, and how we set one up.
Some Volkswagens of this era use a rectangular fob instead of a flip key. On many of them, the fob slides into a slot in the dash to start the car, and cars with keyless access can start with a button while the fob stays in your pocket. A slim emergency blade hides inside for the door lock. The four buttons normally cover lock, unlock, trunk and panic. These fobs fail in familiar ways. The battery gets weak, the buttons wear, or the fob gets dropped and stops being recognised in the slot. A dead fob in a car that starts from a slot means a car that will not start at all, which is why many owners want a working spare. Programming this type of key to a VW immobiliser is detailed work that needs the car present. It can involve reading data from the vehicle, so we ask you to bring all keys you have, plus registration and photo ID. We also cut the emergency blade to your door lock so you can get in if the fob is ever flat. Volkswagen used different versions of this fob depending on model and year, so ask us to confirm before ordering.
