Programming Guide for 2014 Audi S6 Keyless Entry Smart Key Remote Fob

Important Notice: The 2014 Audi S6 does not support onboard programming for smart key remote fobs. Programming must be performed by a qualified automotive professional using Audi-compatible diagnostic tools.

Programming Procedure:

• Step 1: Schedule an appointment with a certified technician or an authorized Audi service provider who is equipped to handle smart key programming for your vehicle.
• Step 2: If the vehicle is drivable, consider taking it directly to the service provider’s facility. This is often more cost-effective than requesting mobile service.
• Step 3: Confirm that the technician has experience with Audi's immobilizer and keyless entry systems to ensure a secure and accurate programming process.
• Step 4: Bring all smart key fobs you plan to use. Any remotes not present during programming may be removed from the vehicle’s memory and rendered inactive.
• Step 5: The technician will connect specialized diagnostic equipment to the vehicle’s OBD-II port to access the electronic control units responsible for key management.
• Step 6: Using the diagnostic interface, the technician will initiate the smart key registration sequence, pairing each fob with the vehicle’s central locking and ignition systems.
• Step 7: After programming, each remote fob will be tested for full functionality—this includes locking/unlocking, trunk access, and push-button start features.
• Step 8: If any fob fails to operate correctly, the technician will troubleshoot and reprogram as needed to ensure reliable performance.
• Step 9: Once all remotes are programmed and verified, the system will exit programming mode, and normal operation will resume.
