What is the Audi Advanced Key?
Audi cars are renowned for their comfort and convenience, which is why the latest models we have in our showroom offer keyless entry and start. This allows you to enter your car and begin driving while keeping the key fob in your purse or pocket.
This system is controlled via proximity sensors located in the trunks, doors and key fobs. Here are a few things you should know about Audi Advanced Key:
1. Proximity Detection
An Audi with proximity detection enables you to open and start your car without ever needing to take the key out of your purse or pocket. 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 capacitive sensors, detects the presence of objects in the vicinity by using an acoustic signal. The sensors generate an electrical signal by using an oscillator. This signal is sent into the air by an audio microphone, which converts it to an audio file. Then, the audio files are compared to determine the degree of similarity and how close they are. When they are close enough, the system will transmit a wake-up signal to the key and transmit an ID signal that matches with the vehicle.
Proximity detection is just the beginning of a more comfortable driving experience. The Audi advanced key also comes with a remote start capability, which allows you to start the engine of your car without leaving the range of your key FOB. This can be useful when you're carrying groceries into the trunk, placing children in their seats or packing for a family outing.

3. Keyless Entry
A keyless entry system is a great convenience, especially when you're carrying groceries, kids or gear. You can unlock your vehicle by pressing a button or sensor mounted on the door's handle (some models also have this technology in the lock). If you're carrying the key fob, it will also send an alarm to activate the car's sensors so that it can sense that you're in the vicinity and that your hand is at the button. This will prevent any unauthorized use of the vehicle by making sure only you are able to open the doors.
Another feature commonly included in keyless entry systems is the capability to start your car remotely without a key. This is accomplished through sensors in the trunk, the tailgate, and sometimes even in the vehicle's doors. The sensors will start the engine of the vehicle and open the doors when the fob is within the distance of the vehicle - usually around 5 feet. Then, you can press a button to start your car. This is a great way to warm your car before you leave for work or when it's cold outside.
Some of the most advanced keyless entry systems don't even require a fob. These cars can be started and unlocked with an app on your smartphone. This is a great solution for business owners or families who would like their employees to have easy access to their company vehicles. Certain keyless entry systems even remember the driver’s preferred seat position and cabin temperature. This could help you save time when you pull up to a parking area.
Some of the more advanced versions of keyless entry systems come with an activated rear hatch that automatically closes and secure your cargo area with a single wave of your foot. You'll find this technology in many Audi vehicles, and, based on the model, it might be a standard feature or an upgrade for a fee. These systems aren't 100% secure, and they can be hacked by thieves with some technical knowledge.
4. Push-Button Start
In contrast to many other vehicle brands, Audi does not offer remote start on its vehicles in its factory capacity. Audi offers an alternative with the same features as remote start, called the Audi Advanced Key.

With this feature, you can unlock your Audi A4's doors or start the engine by pressing the button. This button is located in the same place you normally find the ignition in a standard vehicle.
To activate this feature, you will require a key fob in your pocket, and close enough to your car. Sensors in the trunk and door handles will activate once you and your key fob are within five feet of the vehicle. If you receive an equivocal signal and 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 and not have to dig around in your pockets and purse for your keys. This feature is perfect for people who park their cars frequently. It is also an excellent benefit for those who need to warm up their vehicle quickly to get on the road.

It's credit card size and can be used to unlock your vehicle in the event that your key fob gets lost or is malfunctioning.
