2. Authentication
The Audi advanced key system connects directly to the car's sensors whenever you hit the lock button on your key fob. This sends a code to the car's computer that confirms that the key fob is a valid key fob. This prevents unauthorised access to the vehicle without the correct key fob.
The key fob can be used to start the car from pockets or purses. The Audi advanced key system uses proximity sensors in the doors and the lid of the trunk together with the radio pulse generator on the key fob. When the key fob is within roughly five feet of the vehicle, the sensors detect your presence and open the doors. When you open the trunk, or use the door handle, the vehicle recognizes the key and begins the motor.

You can start the engine by pressing the Start/Stop buttons built into the center console when the key fob is in your pocket or purse. The car's sensors will check the authenticity of the key fob and start the engine once they have confirmed it.

3. Keyless Entry
Keyless entry systems are an excellent convenience, particularly when you're carrying groceries, kids or gear. You can open your car by pressing a button, or a sensor that is mounted on the door handle (some models come with the technology built right into the lock). If you're carrying a key fob, it'll send a signal to activate the car's sensors to let it know you're in the vicinity and that your finger is firmly at the button. This helps discourage unauthorised use of your vehicle by making sure that only you have the right to open the doors.
Keyless entry systems typically include the capability to remotely start your car without the use of a physical key. This is achieved by using sensors mounted in the trunk, the tailgate, and sometimes even inside the doors of the vehicle. These sensors will activate the vehicle's engine and unlock the doors when the fob is within a specific distance of the vehicle - typically around 5 feet. You can then press a button to start your car. This is a great way to get your car warm and cozy before you head off to work in the morning or when it's cold outside.

This is an excellent option for families or business owners who wish to give their employees an easy way to use vehicles for business. Certain keyless entry systems even remember the driver’s preferred seat position or cabin temperature. This could save you lots of time when you get to a parking lot.

One of the most advanced keyless entry systems includes a rear hatch feature that can be activated by a simple foot wave. The hatch will then close and secure the cargo area automatically. This technology is available in a variety of Audi automobiles and, depending on the model, it might be included as a standard feature or as an upgrade for a fee. These systems are not foolproof, and can be tampered with by thieves with some technical expertise.

Once you have the correct code and a clear signal the vehicle will allow you to lock or start the car.
You can drive your Audi A4 with the touch of a button and not have to dig around in your purse and pockets to find your keys. This feature is perfect for those who park their vehicles a lot. It can also be an excellent benefit for those who want to warm up their car quickly for a commute.
