What is the Audi Advanced Key?
Audi prioritizes comfort and convenience. That's why all new models in our showroom include keyless entry and starting. This technology lets you get into your car and start driving, all while keeping your key fob in your pocket or purse.
This system works through proximity sensors in the doors and trunks, coupled with a key radio pulse generator in the key fob. Here are a few things you should know about Audi Advanced Key:
1. Proximity Detection
An Audi with proximity detection enables you to start and enter your car without having to take the key from your pocket or purse. This system lets you unlock the doors of your car and trunk, as well as the engine, with just a touch of the sensor button on the key.
A sound-based sensor is also known as a capacitive sensor, detects the presence of objects nearby by utilizing an acoustic wave. The sensors generate a signal using an oscillator. This signal is sent into the air by an audio microphone, which converts it to an audio file. The audio files are examined to determine the degree of similarity and how close they are. If they are similar enough that the system sends a wake-up signal to the key and transmit an ID signal that matches with the vehicle.
Proximity detection is the first step towards a more convenient driving experience. The Audi advanced key comes with remote start functionality, which allows you the ability to start your car from outside the range of your key FOB. This is helpful when you are loading groceries into the boot, securing your children in their seats or packing for an excursion with your family.
Audi pre sense basic is a security feature that allows you to avoid accidents by taking action before a collision occurs. It makes use of data from other systems, including the front camera radar sensors, the front camera and Audi side assist to determine the likelihood of collisions and warn drivers. It can also trigger automatic braking up to 250 km/h (155.3) and alert the driver by displaying a message in the head-up and virtual cockpit display.

2. Authentication
The Audi advanced key system communicates directly with the car's sensors when you press the lock button on your key fob. This sends a code to the car's computer that confirms that the key fob is a valid key fob. This prevents any unauthorized access to the vehicle without the proper key fob.
The key fob can be used to start the vehicle from inside the pocket or purse. Audi's advanced key system uses proximity sensors inside the trunk lid as well as the doors and key fob. If the key fob is within five feet of the vehicle, the sensors detect your presence and unlock the doors. When you open the trunk, or use the door handle, the vehicle recognizes the key and starts the motor.
You can also utilize the key fob in order to activate the push-button feature of your vehicle. You can start the engine by pressing the Start/Stop buttons built into the center console, if the key fob is in your purse or pocket. The car's sensors check the authenticity of the key fob and once it's confirmed, the engine will start.
The Audi advanced key system includes a keyless entry feature that allows you to unlock your car's doors by pressing the handle on the exterior of the door. It's a great feature for when you've got hands full or are wearing gloves. For example, when you're bringing groceries or children in the car. The system also has an option to release the trunk, so you can open the trunk using an aplomb, which is a helpful feature when you have a lot of things on your hands.

3. Keyless Entry
Keyless entry systems can be a great option when you're carrying groceries, children or other equipment. You can unlock your vehicle by touching a sensor or button placed on the handle of the door (some models have the technology in the lock). If you're carrying a key fob, it will also send an alert to activate the car's sensors to let it know you are nearby and that your finger is firmly on the button. This prevents unauthorised use of your vehicle by making sure that only you have the right to unlock the doors.
Another feature commonly offered by keyless entry systems is the ability to remotely start your car without the use of a key. Sensors in the trunk or tailgate or even within the doors of the vehicle are used to achieve this. The sensors will start the engine of the vehicle and open the doors when the fob is within a certain range of the car - typically, around 5 feet. Then, you can press an appropriate button to start your car. This is a great method to warm your car prior to when you leave for work or when it is cold outside.
Some of the more advanced versions of keyless entry don't require a key fob at all. These vehicles can be opened and unlocked with a smartphone application. This is a great solution for business owners or families who want to provide their employees with an easy way to access company vehicles. Certain keyless entry systems even keep track of the driver's preferred seating position or cabin temperature. This can be a huge time saver when you're driving into the parking lot.
One of the more advanced keyless entry systems includes a rear hatch feature that can be activated by a simple foot wave. It will shut and secure the cargo area automatically. This technology is available in a variety of Audi models and can be an option as a standard feature or an upgrade depending on the model. These systems aren't foolproof, and can be tampered with by thieves with some technical expertise.
4. Push-Button Start
Audi, unlike many other brands of vehicles that offer remote starting at the factory, does not provide this feature in the factory. Audi offers a second option that has similar features to remote start, which is called the Audi Advanced Key.
This feature is not a remote start system but it's a great choice for drivers who want to start their vehicle without having to insert the key. This feature allows you to unlock the doors of your Audi A4 or start the car by pressing a single button. This button is located in the same place you normally will find the ignition on a conventional vehicle.
You'll require your key fob and to be within 5 feet of the vehicle to activate this feature. Sensors in the door handles or trunk will be activated once you and your keyfob are within five feet of the vehicle. If you have the right code and a clear signal the car will be able to lock or start the car.
You can begin 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 ideal for people who spend long hours in parking lots and is useful if you want to quickly warm up your car to commute or run some errands.
When you're in your car, the system will continue to communicate with the keyfob. This is accomplished through encrypted signals, which helps to ensure that the system won't be compromised. You can also make use of a Keyless Go Card as a backup. It is a credit card-sized card that could be used to open the vehicle in case your key fob fails or gets lost.
If your car is equipped with the Audi Advanced Key and you have trouble getting it to start, it may be a problem with the key or vehicle. This is something your local Audi dealer can assist with. The user manual has a procedure that can be used to re-pair your keys and your vehicle.
