I've used a security company in Crawley to programme a used remote for our old Leon Cupra R before, but that was a good few years ago. The issue I believe with Audi doing it is they're unable to use an immob chip that's already been linked to another vehicle, whereas the aftermarket folk aren't tied to that so a 2nd hand unit isn't an issue.
I can look up the details if coming over this way isn't too much agro?
I've just done all the paperwork to order a replacement 'temporary' key for the S5, as the original has gone walkies early in the car's life. Previous owner has never had it, so it's gone missing within 6 months of registration! Third key is still coded to the car so not prepared to take a risk on it and since I am having to order via the main dealer I'm hoping they'll re-code for goodwill (they owe me a couple of favours after poor service) but will have to wait and see.
