B7 A4 (2005-2008)
First post-Audi-RS4 generation. Uses older Audi immobiliser tech. Spare keys via OBD; AKL requires module access. Typically 75-90 minutes spare, 120-150 AKL.
B7 A4Spare keys, all-keys-lost and immobiliser work for every Audi A4 generation — B7 (2005-2008), B8 (2008-2016), B9 (2015-onwards). Pre-MQB and MQB48 platforms covered on the driveway. Same software as the dealer.
We work on every B7 / B8 / B9 — Saloon & Avant variant — using manufacturer-grade equipment and procedures. These are the most common jobs we see.

B8 A4Current A4 platform uses MQB48 — VW Group's latest immobiliser. Significantly more complex with encrypted SFD (security feature delete) protection. We have the tooling.
B9 A4Performance A4 variants use the same key architecture as standard A4. We cover S4 and RS4 across all three generations.
S4 and RS4 variantsMany B8 and B9 cars have keyless entry/start. Different fob and programming. We carry the right Comfort Access fobs.

Covering the full B7 / B8 / B9 — Saloon & Avant range. These are the variants we work on most often:
B9 A4 — all keys lost after losing them on a holiday. DashTech sorted it in 2 hours on my driveway. Saved the trip back.
B8 A4 Avant — spare key for the dog walker. Quick booking, sorted on the driveway in Guildford. Cheaper than Audi by a mile.
B9 RS4 Avant — spare key for security. DashTech came, brought the right fob, sorted it cleanly. Brilliant.
