What is the Audi Advanced Key?
Audi vehicles prioritize comfort and convenience, which is the reason the new models in our showroom feature keyless entry and start. This allows you to get into your car and start driving while keeping the key fob in your purse or pocket.
This system is controlled by proximity sensors that are located in the doors, trunks and key fobs. Here are a few things you should know about Audi Advanced Key:
1. Proximity Detection
Audi proximity detection allows you to begin and enter your vehicle without having to take the key out of your purse or pocket. The access and authorization system works by enabling a data exchange between the convenience key and your vehicle which allows you to open the trunk and doors, and even activate the engine with just a touch of a sensor button on your key.
A sensor based on sound is also referred to as a capacitive sensor, detects the presence of objects around by utilizing an acoustic wave. The sensors generate an electrical signal by using an oscillator. This signal is released into the air via an audio microphone, which transforms it into an audio file. Then, the audio files are compared to determine the degree of similarity and how close they are. If they are in close proximity to each other, the system will send a wake-up signal to the key. It will also send an ID signal to the vehicle.
The first step toward an easier and more comfortable driving experience is proximity detection. The Audi advanced key also comes with remote start which lets you initiate your vehicle's engine beyond the range of your key's FOB. This is useful for loading groceries into the boot, locking your children in their seats or packing for an outing with the family.
Audi pre sense basic is a safety feature that allows you to avoid accidents by taking action prior to the collision happens. It makes use of data from other systems including the front camera as well as radar sensors and Audi side assist to calculate the likelihood of collisions and warn drivers. It can also trigger the automatic braking system at speeds of up to 250 km/h (155,3) and alert the driver via the virtual cockpit or head-up display.

2. Authentication
The Audi advanced key system connects directly to the car's sensors when you hit the lock button on your key fob. It sends a confirmation number to the computer in the car, which confirms that it is a valid key fob. This safeguards against any unauthorized access to the vehicle without the correct key fob.
The key fob can be used to start the vehicle from inside the pocket or purse. The Audi advanced key system uses proximity sensors on the doors and the lid of the trunk, paired with an electronic radio-frequency generator inside the key fob. The sensors unlock the doors when the key fob is in close proximity to the vehicle (about five feet). Then, when you pull the door handle or open the trunk the vehicle will recognize your key and kicks off the engine.
You can also use your key fob to activate the start-up feature of your vehicle's push button. When the key fob is in of your purse or pocket it is possible to press the Start/Stop button integrated in the center console to engage the engine. The car's sensors will verify the authenticity of the key fob and then start the engine after they've confirmed it.
The Audi advanced key system also features a keyless entry function that lets you unlock your car's doors by pressing the handle on the outside of the door. It's a great feature when you have a full hand or are wearing gloves. For instance, if you're carrying groceries or kids in the car. The system has a trunk release button that allows you to open the trunk using a kick motion. This is a great feature to use when you're carrying many groceries or children into the vehicle.

3. Keyless Entry
A keyless entry system can be a great convenience when you're carrying your kids, groceries or gear. You can open your car by pressing a button, or a sensor mounted on the door handle (some models have this technology built right into the lock). The key fob will activate the sensors in the vehicle when you are carrying it. This informs the vehicle that you are nearby and that your hand is pressed pressing the button. This helps discourage unauthorized use of your vehicle by making sure that only you have the right to open the doors.
Another feature that is typically included with keyless entry systems is the capability to remote start your car without the use of a key. Sensors that are mounted in the trunk or tailgate, and sometimes in the doors of the vehicle are employed to accomplish this. These sensors will unlock the doors and turn on the engine of the vehicle if the fob is within 5 feet. Then, you can press the button to start your car. This is a great method to get your car warm and toasty before you leave for work in the morning or when it's cold outside.
Some of the most advanced keyless entry systems don't require a fob. These cars can be started and unlocked with a smartphone application. This is an excellent option for business owners or families who want to provide their employees with an easy way read more to access company vehicles. Some keyless entry systems will even remember the driver’s preferred seat position and cabin temperature. This can help you save time when you get to a parking lot.
One of the more advanced keyless entry systems comes with an opening at the rear that can be activated by just a simple touch of your foot. The hatch will then close and secure the cargo area automatically. You'll find this technology in many Audi vehicles and, depending on the model, it may be a standard feature or a paid upgrade. These systems are not secure, and could be hacked by thieves with a little technical expertise.
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, which is called the Audi Advanced Key.
This isn't a remote start system, but it's a great option for those who wish to start their car without having to insert a key. With this feature, you are able to unlock your Audi A4's doors or start the engine by pressing a button. The button is located exactly the same spot as the ignition switch on the standard car.
You will require your key fob and to be within 5 feet of the vehicle in order to activate this feature. Sensors in the door handles or trunk will be activated when you and your keyfob are within five feet of the car. If you have the right code and a clear signal the car will be able to lock or start the car.
You can start driving your Audi A4 with the touch of a button without having to dig around in your purse and pockets to find your keys. This feature is perfect for those who park their vehicles a lot. It can also be a great asset for those who have to warm up their vehicle quickly to get on the road.
When you get inside your vehicle the system continues to communicate with your key fob. This is done by using encrypted signals to prevent hackers from getting into your car. It also offers you the Keyless Go card as a backup, which is credit-card size and can be used to unlock the vehicle in the event that your key fob is lost or malfunctioning.
If you have an Audi Advanced Key installed and have trouble getting your car started it could be due to a problem with the key. This is something your local Audi dealer can assist you with. They can carry out a procedure in the user's manual which will re-pair the keys and the vehicle.
