2019 Audi A3 Replacement - Fast, Affordable & Professional
Saturday afternoon in Oxnard, out near Ormond Beach, a high school tennis coach called me from a parking lot. His 2019 A3 had one key left and he had already lost two over the past year. He wanted a spare cut and programmed before his luck ran out completely.
I pulled up next to his car and got to work. Decoded the lock, cut the HU162T blade on the mechanical key so it matched the original profile clean. Then I connected to the OBD port and got into the BCM2 immobilizer through the instrument cluster. Read the component security byte, pulled the PIN, ran the key registration sequence. The MQB platform is picky about timing on these steps, so I let the system do its handshake without rushing it.
Here is the part he did not expect. After the key was programmed, I did not just hand it over. I tested the mechanical turn in the door lock cylinder. Then I started the car three times in a row, waiting for a full shutdown between each, watching for any intermittent immobilizer fault on the cluster.
He stood there with his arms crossed the whole time. When I started it the third time with zero hesitation, he finally uncrossed them.
Three clean starts, mechanical lock confirmed, no fault codes stored. That is when I call a job done. The dealer would have had him drop the car off for half a day and charge him a good chunk more for the same result.

What no-hassle service sounds like
“Tim was GREAT. I honestly swear he must have had my keys made before he even showed up. The entire process was insanely fast, from the initial phone call to having the keys in my hand. No one will beat the pricing, efficiency, or outstanding service.”
“This is the only locksmith anyone should ever call. I am still shocked at how fast he arrived and the price was hundreds less than other quotes I received. Honest, professional, and extremely efficient.”
“Locked out on a weekend night and everyone else wanted $300+. EZ Car Keyz sent Roman late at night for much less. He worked for over an hour and did not give up until the door opened. They even made a new key on the spot.”
