1998 Audi A6 replacement key fob with no original from EZ Car Keyz Oxnard CA
🔧 PRO TIP
The 1998 A6 runs a Megamos 48 transponder chip (ID48) inside the key head paired to the Bosch immobilizer 2 (Immo2) system on a 4B0 953 234 A instrument cluster module. The remote side, FCC ID MYT8Z0837231, is a separate circuit from the immobilizer, so a dead CR2032 kills your lock and unlock buttons but the car still starts if the blade turns. If your remote range drops to nothing, swap the CR2032 first and clean the battery contacts on the 4D0837231P circuit board before assuming the remote module is fried.

1998 Audi A6 Remote Flip Key Replacement - Fast, Affordable & Professional

Got a Saturday night call from a guy near Ormond Beach in Oxnard. He had a 1998 Audi A6 sitting at a resort lot, zero keys. His flip key with the 4D0837231P housing had been in his jacket pocket, jacket got left in a locked conference room, and the hotel staff couldn't get the room open until Monday. Concierge told him it was a dealer-only situation. Dealer closed until Monday.

I drove out to the resort. The C5-platform A6 uses the Immo2 system with an ID48 Megamos crypto transponder, which means the security data lives in the instrument cluster EEPROM. I pulled the cluster connector, read the relevant data off the module, and ran it through my calculation tool to extract the transponder secret key and PIN.

Cut a new blade on the HU66 profile, programmed a fresh ID48 chip to match the Immo2 login, and then went through OBD adaptation on the cluster to register the new key. After that I synced the remote functions on the MYT8Z0837231 fob so all four buttons were live.

He sat on a bench watching the whole thing. When the engine turned over he just nodded slowly, like he was confirming something to himself. Didn't say much. Drove off about 40 minutes after I pulled up, for a fraction of what a dealer would have charged after a two-day wait.

“They responded instantly, showed up within an hour, and arrived exactly when they said they would. Made a copy and programmed a fob for my 2014 car with a worn ignition in about 15 minutes. The new key works perfectly and feels like a dealer key.”

“Super fast service. About 20 minutes from the call he was already there. He had an authentic replacement on hand and made a spare key for my 2017 Nissan Rogue in about 15 minutes. Great prices, friendly, and very professional.”

Audi A6 Mobile Service FAQ

Real costs, no dealer surprises

I lost my only key for a 1998 Audi A6. Can a locksmith handle that?
Yep. All-keys-lost on the C5 A6 with Immo2 is a standard job for me. I read the EEPROM from the instrument cluster module (typically the 4B0 953 234 series), extract the PIN and transponder data, program a new ID48 Megamos chip, cut the HU66 blade, and register it through the OBD port. The old lost key gets erased so it cannot start the car. The remote side of the 4D0837231P fob gets synced at the same time. The whole process runs about 30 to 45 minutes on site.
Is a locksmith cheaper than the Audi dealer for a 1998 A6 key?
Does the price include cutting, programming, and the key itself?
My 1998 A6 key turns but the engine cranks and won't start. Is that the immobilizer?
Can I buy a 4D0837231P key online and program it myself?
