My remote key is out of power now, i found a store in ebay which sold the key, but the key was cut, can i buy that for my car? The uncut remote key was more expensive than one cut.

I hate how the remote start shuts off when I unlock the doors. Then I have to manually re-start the car. If I get the VCDS, is there a way to disable/change the coding so the remote start keeps the car on?

My only question is, is there any way to change the settings on the remote start? I lock my car, hit the remote start, car turns on and all is well.
But when I unlock my car, the engine stops running. It just seems a little redundant to have the car shut itself off when its already locked, as other manufacturers seem to keep the car running after the unlock button has been hit.
I received a free keyless remote for the passat from a friend and would like to program this remote to my car. I tried the method that everyone is talking about online, which is to turn the ignition to the "on" position with one key (w/o starting the car). Then put another key on the driver side door and turn to unlock position and hold until 3 beeps. I've held the key for over a minute and still don't hear any beeps. What am I doing wrong?
View 12 RepliesI have a mechanic that I've always gone to for oil changes, repairs, etc. I just bought a 2009 Toyota Camry Hybrid in October 2012, and when I needed the oil changed, my mechanic said the remote needed to be disabled in order to change the oil (something about the car turning on automatically when it hits a certain temperature, I think - not too sure there), but he didn't know how to do this. How to disable the remote/key or if this needs to be done to change the oil/filter? I don't really know much about cars, but I searched the manual to no avail.
Also, probably a dumb question, but I heard somewhere that you don't have to change oil on hybrids as often as non-hybrids (my last car was a Chevy Equinox). Is that true? It seems like my maintenance required light on the hybrid came on after about 3000 or so miles.
I have changed the batteries in the remote for my MY 2000 Jetta MKIV VR6. Now the remote is not working. A search suggests I need to program the remote using a specific procedure. Alas, I have found various procedures, and so far none has worked.
First of all, I have two keys, Both were functional. One still is.
What I tried:
-Put key with fob in ignition and turn key to accessory mode position.
-Wait 5 seconds
-Hold lock button on 5 down for 10 seconds.
-Turn ignition off and remove key.
-Close doors on car and trey to lock/unlock - not working!
I'm sure I can find a few more suggested methods, but what's the proper method?
Only had my 2011 LS about a month now.
Other cars I have seen will allow you to use the remote and close all windows and moon roof. Looking at the LS460 manual it looks like the dealer can program our remote to open the windows and moon roof with the remote. But it does not say anything about closing.
Also a question on the Navigation. Can you change the default screen to the Information screen? Mine always goes straight to the map when I start up. Could not find a place to change it.
2002 Taurus all lights work, turn key and dash lights come on normal, nothing flashing and anti-theft lights and turns off. Turn to start and nothing. Used to start w/remote starter but that quit working as well. I replaced the starter and battery and car still wont start with the key, but does start with remote.
View 2 RepliesLet me start by saying the car is the 2002 ford focus and has a remote starter keyless entry and alarm that has been in stalled years ago so the one day I'm trying to go inside my car and the unlock button on the key fob doesn't work so I put the key in the door and open it all the doors unlock.
I ignored it when I'm leaving the car I lock it with the key fob it chrips then my son rushes outside and opens the door. That's when I noticed the door didn't lock then I try the door switch to lock and unlock the doors but nothing happens I tried the passenger switch nothing
Symptoms : Both driver and passenger door lock switches are not working If I hit the unlock button twice on the key fob all the doors unlock...
it's been a long time since i had to do this and i forget. What's the number added to the convenience module to roll windows down or up with remote? 2000 passat wagon

I know the dealer would do it but it is a ridiculous price for something that should take about 3 minutes to do.
View 6 RepliesI've searched and it seems this is only possible if you open the drivers door and hold down the window switches, but I just want to check...
Is there a way to open the windows from the key fob/remote? This would be really nice since the remote start function is so poorly implemented.
My BMW opens the windows if I hold down the unlock button on the remote or if I put the key in the door lock cylinder and turn and hold (can also close the windows with the key in lock, but not the remote). I've tried and didn't get it to work, but my remote start also gives me fits, so I'm not sure that I'm actually holding the button down right or long enough.
Today at lunch break, I'm able to unlock all doors by double-clicking the unlock button on the remote. No more than 4-5 hours later, the remote only unlocks the driver door; it no longer unlocks the passenger or 2 rear doors; car is a 2001.5 Passat. I'm also still able to pop the trunk. Just for the heck of it, I tried my other remote, and I get the same results.

View 6 Replies2004 Passat 1.8T ... The unlock part of the remote won't work ... It used to, but won't now ... The trunk release and lock buttons on the remote work just fine though ... I did replace a battery a ways back ... I can't remember if this started happening right after that or not ... I've lived with it for a while now and am annoyed enough at this point to fix it ... In case this comes up, this is the only remote I have for the car right now ... Bought it used and it only came with one ...
View 6 RepliesI've got a 04 Passat TDI wagon with factory keyless locks. The remote/keyless entry range sucks! And yes I put a new battery in it. I've had cheapo alarms operate much further than this factory system. Can I extend the range somehow? Does the keyless transmit through the antenna? Are there any range boosters or ways to make this a real world usable feature?
