What is the Audi Advanced Key?
Audi vehicles prioritize comfort and convenience, which is the reason the latest models we display in our showroom have keyless entry and start. This allows you to enter your car and begin driving, all while keeping your key fob in your purse or pocket.
The system works by using proximity sensors in the trunks and doors, coupled with an electronic key radio within the key fob. Here are a few things you need to be aware of Audi Advanced Key:
1. Proximity Detection
Audi proximity detection lets you to open and get into your vehicle without having take the key out of your purse or pocket. The access and authorization system works through automatic data exchange between the convenience key and your car, allowing you to unlock the trunk and doors and even activate the engine with just a press on your key.
A sound-based proximity sensor also referred to a capacitive sensor, makes use of acoustic waves to detect the presence of objects in close proximity. The sensors use an oscillator that generates an electrical signal, which is transmitted through the air and received by a microphone, which converts it into an audio file. Then, the audio files are examined to determine how similar they are and how close they are. When they are close to each other, the system will send a wake-up message to the key. It will also send an ID signal matching the vehicle.
The first step towards a more convenient driving environment is proximity detection. The Audi advanced key has remote start capabilities that gives you the ability to start your car outside the range of your key FOB. This can be useful when you are loading groceries into the trunk, or securing children in their seats, or packing for an family adventure.

2. Authentication
When you press the key fob's lock button, the Audi advanced key system communicates with your car's sensors. This sends a code to the car's computer that confirms that it is a valid key fob. This safeguards against unauthorised entry into the vehicle without the proper key fob.
It also enables drivers to start their vehicles using the key fob inside their pocket or purse. Audi's advanced key system uses proximity sensor in the trunk lid, doors and key fob. The sensors open the doors when the key fob is in close proximity to the vehicle (about five feet). Then, when you use the door handle or open the trunk, the vehicle recognizes your key and starts the engine.
You can also make use of your key fob in order to activate the push-button start feature in your vehicle. When the key fob is in of your pocket or purse, you can simply press the Start/Stop button in the center console to start the engine. The car's sensors check the key fob's authenticity, and when it's confirmed, the engine will start.

3. Keyless Entry
A keyless entry system is a great convenience, especially when you're carrying groceries, kids or other gear. You can unlock your car simply by pressing a button or sensor mounted on the door handle (some models come with the technology built into the lock). If you're carrying a key fob, it will send a signal to activate the vehicle's sensors so that it knows you are nearby and that your finger is at the button. This will prevent any unauthorized use of the vehicle, by ensuring only you can unlock the doors.
Another feature commonly included in keyless entry systems is the ability to remote start your car without the use of a key. Sensors that are mounted in the tailgate or trunk, and sometimes in the doors of the vehicle are employed to accomplish this. These sensors will unlock the doors and activate the engine of the vehicle if the fob is within 5 feet. Then, you can press an appropriate button to start your vehicle. This is a great way to get your car warm and toasty 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 a fob. These vehicles can be opened and unlocked with a smartphone application. This is a great solution for business owners or families who wish to provide their employees with an easy method of using vehicles for business. Certain keyless entry systems can even website remember the driver’s preferred seating position or cabin temperature. This could be a major time saver while you're pulling up to the parking area.
Some of the more sophisticated models of keyless entry systems include a touch-activated rear hatch function which will automatically shut and secure your cargo area by a simple tap of your foot. You can find this feature in a variety of Audi vehicles, and, based on the model, it may be an option that is standard or a paid upgrade. Be aware that these systems are not impervious to attack and can be manipulated by thieves who have skills or knowledge.
4. Push-Button Start
Audi unlike other vehicle brands that offer remote starting in the factory, doesn't offer it. Audi offers a different option with the same features as remote start, dubbed the Audi Advanced Key.
While not a full remote start system, this option is a great alternative for those who require an easy method to start their car without the need to insert keys. With this feature, you can open the doors of your Audi A4 or start the engine by pressing the button. This button is located in the same place you typically will find the ignition on the normal vehicle.
To activate this feature, you require a key fob in your pocket and be close enough to the vehicle. Sensors in the trunk and door handles will be activated when you and your key fob are within five feet of the vehicle. If you receive an unambiguous signal and the correct code, the vehicle will then allow you to lock the doors and start the engine.
You can drive your Audi A4 with the touch of a button without having to dig around in your purse or pockets for your keys. This feature is perfect for people who park their cars a lot. It is also a great asset for those who need to warm up their car quickly to get on the road.
Once you're inside your vehicle the system will continue to communicate with your key fob. This is done via encrypted signals, which help to ensure that the system will not be hacked. It also comes with an Keyless Go card as a backup. It's credit card sized and can be used to unlock the vehicle in case the key fob is lost or malfunctioning.
