    mine has stopped working, Ive changed the battery but to no avail.
    It operates the alarm, 3 button job, open/close & open boot.
    Car is an audi a3 2004 model.
    Where is the best place to get a replacement and what cost am I looking at?
    Cheers in advance.

    It is.
    Ive a spare but its falling apart since I got it.
    Can they be repaired rather than replaced? I am assuming that all the falls its taken has killed it.

    Might be cheaper sourcing a key from a crashed car with a new blade on eBay.

    I took this route for my Focus.

    Key with new blade 25 euro
    Cutting 20 euro
    Programming 50 euro

    Cheaper than the 175 euro quote I got from autokey
