Cheers Magnet - hmmm, thats a shame - it must have worked at some point I suppose....
So, if I just try everything I can find - and if none of that works, then ity is off to a ato key person to recode something....
Hello Grant,
Sorry for the potentially pessimistic response, but I literally tried all the suggested methods I could find pre-Covid, in an attempt to recode the ‘spare’ remote for the humble A3 - failed - but fortunately the key still opens and starts the car, so given up on any ‘non- electronic’ re syncing!
Kind regards,
Gareth.
The only other thing to consider is choice - 19's are not as prevalent as 18's so the tyre choice may be more limited (and expensive). I had 19's on a 61 Touareg and they were fine but on a car as has been said, they might compromise the ride.
I posted this link on another thread - https://www.youtube.com/shorts/osWj4f-Mn7g - might be worth a try?
also this one is slightly different to your method https://youtu.be/QkIdVobV_UI?si=z0dO4wwsFD8_HBsQ - again worth a try.
Hi about the best two are YARA from Halfords or Redex, cheaper at Tool station, the Yara is the best and Halfords are doing a deal at the moment three 3.5 litre pouches for £18.99.
