Vehicle Key, Checking Function And Entering Number Of Assigned Keys

WARNING: This page does not describe the selected car, but rather 10 other vehicles, including the 2022 Audi SQ8, 2022 Audi RS Q8, 2022 Audi Q8, 2021 Audi SQ8, and 2021 Audi RS Q8. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.

Procedure:

-- Separate the set of keys so that the function of each key can be checked individually.

-- Start the engine using each key separately.

-- If a vehicle key is not adapted, readapt all existing vehicle keys to the vehicle using the Guided Functions on the Vehicle Diagnostic Tester via the GeKo online connection.

-- If there is suspicion of misuse (for example, a key is missing), pay attention to the current Audi AG information in ServiceNet under "Technical Service → Anti-theft protection".

NOTE:

Only store the key to be checked in the vehicle interior. Move the other keys outside of the operating range.

The engine switches off again after a few seconds if the key is not adapted. Depending on the vehicle equipment, the anti-theft immobilizer system indicator lamp or the display "SAFE" also appears in the instrument cluster.
