Audi 5C / MQB49 Spare Keys – No Dealer Ordering Required

We can now supply and programme Audi 5C / MQB49 spare keys without the need to order a pre-coded key from the Audi main dealer. This means we can provide replacement or additional keys much faster and typically at a lower cost than traditional dealer services.

The MQB49 (5C) immobiliser system is used on many newer Audi models and features advanced encrypted security designed to prevent unauthorised key programming. Using the latest specialist diagnostic and key programming equipment, we are now able to generate, cut and programme compatible Audi 5C keys directly, removing the long wait times often associated with dealer-ordered keys.

Audi Models We Can Commonly Add 5C / MQB49 Spare Keys To

This immobiliser system is found in a number of newer Audi vehicles, including:

Audi A1 (2019 onwards)

Audi A3 (2020 onwards)

Audi Q2 (2021 onwards)

Audi Q3 (2020 onwards)

Audi TT (late models)

Many other Audi vehicles built on the MQB platform may also be supported. If you are unsure whether your vehicle uses the Audi 5C / MQB49 system, our team can quickly check compatibility.

Faster Alternative to Audi Dealer Key Replacement

Traditionally, vehicles with the Audi 5C immobiliser system required a key to be ordered and pre-coded by an Audi dealership, which could involve long waiting times and higher costs. Our specialist automotive locksmith equipment allows us to create and programme spare Audi keys without the dealership ordering process, providing a quicker and more convenient solution.

If you need a replacement Audi key, have lost your key, or simply want an extra spare, contact us today to arrange Audi 5C / MQB49 key cutting and programming.

Audi MLB Spare Keys – Dealer-Level Programming Available

In addition to MQB vehicles, we can also supply and programme Audi MLB spare keys for many models that use the MLB (Modular Longitudinal Platform) security system. These vehicles traditionally require main dealer key ordering and programming, but with our specialist equipment we can often provide a faster and more convenient alternative.

Audi MLB vehicles use advanced encrypted immobiliser systems designed to prevent unauthorised key programming. Our professional automotive locksmith tools allow us to cut and programme compatible Audi MLB keys, restoring full remote locking and engine start functionality.

Audi Models Using the MLB Platform

The MLB platform is typically found on larger Audi models with longitudinal engines, including:

Audi A4

Audi A5

Audi A6

Audi A7

Audi A8

Audi Q5

Audi Q7

Audi Q8

Many newer models from around 2016 onwards (MLB Evo platform) use this system.
