What is the Audi Advanced Key?
Audi cars are renowned for their comfort and convenience, which is why the new models we have in our showroom offer keyless entry and start. This technology allows you get into your car and start driving while keeping your key fob in pocket or your purse.
The system is controlled by proximity sensors that are located in the trunks, doors and key fobs. Here are a few things you need to know about Audi Advanced Key:
1. Proximity Detection
An Audi equipped with proximity detection enables you to enter and start your car without ever having to pull the key from your purse or pocket. This system lets you unlock your car's doors, trunk and engine by a single click of the sensor button on the key.
A sensor based on sound, also called a capacitive sensor, is able to detect the presence of objects around using acoustic wave. The sensors generate an oscillator-generated signal. This signal is then transmitted into the air by an audio microphone, which transforms it into an audio file. The audio files are evaluated to determine the degree of similarity and how close they are. When they are within a certain distance and the system sends a wake-up message to the key. It will also send an ID signal matching the vehicle.
Proximity detection is just the first step to an easier and more enjoyable driving experience. The Audi advanced key also has remote start capabilities which lets you initiate your vehicle's engine without leaving the range of your key's FOB. This is useful when you're taking groceries out of the trunk, placing children in their seats or packing for a family outing.

2. Authentication
The Audi advanced key system connects directly to the car's sensors whenever you hit the lock button on your key fob. This sends a code to the car's computer which confirms that it is a valid key fob. This security measure prevents unauthorised entry into the vehicle without the authentic key fob.
The key fob can be used to start the vehicle from inside pockets or purses. The Audi advanced key system utilizes proximity sensors in the trunk lid and doors together with an electronic radio-frequency generator inside the key fob. The sensors unlock the doors when the key fob is close proximity to the vehicle (about five feet). When you open the trunk or pull the door handle the car recognizes the key and starts the motor.
You can also utilize the key fob to activate the push-button feature of your vehicle. When the key fob is in of your pocket or purse it is possible to press the Start/Stop button integrated in the center console to activate the engine. The car's sensors confirm the key fob's authenticity, and once it's confirmed, the engine will start.

The system also comes with the trunk release button that lets you unlock the trunk by the kick gesture, a useful feature when you're carrying a lot on your hands.

3. Keyless Entry
Keyless entry systems are an amazing convenience, especially when you're carrying groceries, kids or other gear. You can unlock your vehicle by simply pressing a button or sensor placed on the door's handle (some models have the technology inside the lock). The key fob can also activate the sensors inside the vehicle when you are carrying it. This signals that you are nearby and that your hand is pressed pressing a button. This will stop unauthorized use of the vehicle, by ensuring only you can unlock the doors.
A keyless entry system will often include the ability to remotely start your vehicle without a physical key. This is achieved by using sensors mounted in the trunk, tailgate or even in the vehicle's doors. The sensors will start the engine of the vehicle and then unlock the doors when the fob is within a certain range of the car - typically around 5 feet. After that, you can push an appropriate button to start your vehicle. This is a great method to get your car warm and cozy before you head off to work in the morning or when it's cold outside.
Some of the most advanced keyless entry systems don't even require fobs. These cars can be unlocked and started by using a smartphone website application. This is a great solution for families or business owners who would like their employees to have easy access to their company vehicles. Some keyless entry systems can even remember the driver's preferred seat position and cabin temperature. This could help you save time when you get to a parking area.
Some of the more sophisticated variations of keyless entries systems include an activated rear hatch which will automatically shut and secure your cargo area by a simple tap of your foot. This technology is available in many Audi vehicles and, depending on the model, it could be an option that is standard or a paid upgrade. Be aware that these systems are not completely secure and could be hacked by skilled thieves with skills or knowledge.
4. Push-Button Start
Contrary to other brands, Audi does not offer remote start on its vehicles in its factory capacity. Audi offers an alternative with similar features to remote start, dubbed the Audi Advanced Key.
This feature is not a remote start system but it's a great option for those who want to start their vehicle without having insert keys. This feature allows you to unlock the doors of your Audi A4 or start the car by pressing one button. This button is in the same place as the ignition switch on a conventional car.
To activate this feature, you will require a key fob in your pocket, and close enough to the car. Sensors in the door handles or trunk will be activated when you and your keyfob are within five feet of the car. Once you have an unambiguous signal and the correct code the vehicle will allow you to lock the doors and start the engine.
You can start driving your Audi A4 with the touch of a button, without having to search through your purse and pockets to find your keys. This feature is perfect for those who spend much time in parking lots, and it can be an asset if you need to quickly warm up your car to commute or run errands.
When you get inside your vehicle the system continues to communicate with your key fob. This is done with encrypted signals to avoid hacking. It is also possible to use the Keyless Go Card as a backup. It's a credit card-sized card that can be used to unlock the vehicle in case your key fob fails or gets lost.
If your car is equipped with the Audi Advanced Key and you are having difficulty getting it to start, it might be a problem with the key or the vehicle. This is something that your local Audi dealer can assist with. They can run a routine in the user's manual which will fix the keys and the vehicle.
