Replacing Your Volkswagen Key

You'll have to replace your Volkswagen key when you lose it. Getting a new one from the dealer will cost you money and require you to wait for it to arrive.

It could be tempting to buy second-hand VW keys on the internet or in shops which sell them. These keys are unlikely to be able to disable the immobiliser that comes with your vehicle.

Battery Replacement

Modern electronic keys are more convenient and useful than the old-fashioned manual volkswagon keys. However, they'll eventually be power-depleted or stop working. If your VW's key fob ceases responding to button presses or you notice it takes longer than usual for the lock/unlock buttons to work it could be a sign that the battery is failing and requires replacement.

You'll require a small screwdriver (preferably a flat-head one wrapped in tape to avoid scratching the fob) and a new 3V CR2032 battery for the job. The battery panel is usually located below the Volkswagen logo. Open the key by pressing the metal key. Push up on the panel to remove it and then press the button on the key fob again to insert the new battery, ensuring that the positive side is facing downwards.

Once you're done you're done, put the key fob remote together and it should be good to go for your next drive around Phoenixville or King of Prussia!

Emergency Key or Bayonet Key

The good news is that even older VW models come with an emergency key or bayonet key. These don't require any power and can open the car door and start the engine if you place it under the ignition.

The disadvantage is that you do not have keyless entry or push button start. This is why it's so important to have a spare Volkswagen key.

If your VW key isn't functioning, it might not be due to a dead battery but instead, it's because it needs to be programmed. The good news is that you don't have to take your vehicle to the dealer to have this done. A locksmith for automotives can provide this service.

You'll need some items in your house in order to program a car fob. First you'll need the year and model of Volkswagen key you have. You'll require a copy of the registration or title of your vehicle.

Having these documents will make it easier for you to visit the dealership when ordering your new VW key. You can then take your vehicle to an auto shop to have it programmed. In most cases, it's an easy procedure that shouldn't take more than an hour. Once the process is finished, you can drive away from the dealership near Pittsford or Webster with a functioning key again.

Key Fob Replacement

Modern VWs are equipped with key fobs that aren't simply keys - they're high-tech anti-theft devices. When you hit a button on your VW key fob the microchip inside sends a unique code to let your car know that it's correct key to unlock and start. The key fobs also include the chip that is used to operate features like remote lock and push-button start.

If your Volkswagen key fob isn't operating correctly, it could need a new battery. You can detect if this is the case by how frequently you need to press the lock/unlock button. If you find yourself pressing the lock/unlock buttons repeatedly, it is likely that the battery has to be replaced.

The buttons on your Volkswagen Mobile key keyfob may have become stuck or dislodged. Because the key fob spends so much time being jostled around, this can be uncommon and can often be rectified by gently breaking the fob and attempting to manually adjust the buttons.

If the problem is more serious it is recommended that you take the key fob to a locksmith to have it replaced. If your key fob has a transponder chip it will be required by the dealer to reprogram the computer in your car to recognize it and this can be expensive. A locksmith can reprogram your computer and save you from the cost of the visit to a dealer.

Transponder Chip Replacement

The keys of the majority of VWs made after 1995 have a transponder. The chip disables the vehicle's immobiliser, a standard feature that makes it impossible to start without the proper key. If you've lost it, or it stopped working, you will require a replacement Volkswagen key.

A locksmith can make a new key for your Volkswagen whatever type of key it is (chip, intelligent key fob, remote with "push-to-start" or regular key without transponder). They can also make a spare key in case you don't have one. But you'll need to bring proof of ownership of the vehicle (vehicle registration, title certificate etc. ).
