Best DIY guide: VCDS add replacement key fobs & program central locking. 97 - 05 VW mk4 & Audi S3 A4

Adding replacement keys can be done by yourself with the right tools. This is the most complete guie to adding keys and programming the central locking which covers:
- Obtaining the SKC or secret key code using VAG EEPROM Programmer (a lot of other videos don't cover this)
- Logging in with SKC and programming the immobiliser for your replacement key(s)
- (bonus) Coding in alarm chirp in the Golf R32
- Programming in central locking. An often forgotten step leaving users with keys but they can't use the convenience of central locking.

This video will be an end-to-end process you can follow for Volkswagen Golf Mk4, Bora/Jetta, Passat B5,
Audi A3/S3 8L, A4/S4/RS4 B5 & Allroad C5's.
TT 8N's aren't included as the instrument cluster is a different beast and obtaining the SKC doesn't work with VAG EEPROM Programmer.

Adding central locking for new keys will work for Audi TT 8N and all other cars already mentioned.

I make a mistake about halfway through the immobiliser programming but i thought to keep it in so you don't do the same mistake as I do.

The only thing you'll need to do other than this is make sure you
- Obtain a replacement fob that runs on the same frequency for central locking and has a virgin RFID chip
How? Split up your key to find the part number inside -    • AUdi TT 8J Mk2 Replace Fob Buttons  
Use this part number to ensure you get a fob that runs on the same frequency as your working key.

- Get the new key blades cut. You can get these cut locally (i.e. in Sydney there's a guy local to me who charges $30 to cut the sidewinder style keys).

All in all instead of paying hundreds of dollars to get new keys made you can pay around $50-60AUD in total.
