Mk 4 remote key

[gimp1]

my mk4 came without keyless. i had a key with a button on it but it turns out to be a light lol. but yeh mine doesnt have keyless entry

There was a company selling a kit in the UK to do that. Plugged inline with the central locking in the footwell. Looked like it was made by Toad IIRC. Was about 100 quid.

god thats annoying, i think i was looking for this information when i got my car (didint get the flip keys) but didnt get anywhere so ended up getting an aftermarket alarm...

im assuming that this route would be somewhat expensive as you would then have to purchase the actual flip keys? i got quoted $250-300 odd for a replacement of my crappy normall key, hate to think what a flip one is worth...

For those with a VAGCOM or similar and central locking don't select channel 0 in the adaption setting for the Comfort Module (46). It will delete your saved keys for the central locking. You can still use the key to unlock the doors and start the car, the remote just won't work.
Use channel 1 to relearn the keys.
Guess who learnt this the hardway...

My wife’s early Mk4 didn’t have keyless entry. Looked into getting a factory ‘dealer fit’ remote locking and it was about $280 for the parts PLUS installation.
Ended up going for a Cyclops after market version $200 installed. (and they came to me and fitted it)

Thanks for that Syrup. Do you remember if the $280 include a factory flip key? I mainly want that!

Also to those late MKIVers, do the headlights/interior lights turn on when you open the car?

Cheers

mines a 99 model and my interior lights turn on when the car is opened, and fade out when you shut the door again, i assume this was a standard feature on all MK4's

havent heard of the headlights coming on as well, although a feature such as this would be somewhat cool

Yeah I have the interior lights turn on when I unlock and/or open the car door. They fade out after a longish period of time of if you start the car or lock the car (from the outside). Headlights are controlled by the switch on the dash only. That is there is no fade on or off the lights. I don't think there were any revisions after my car as the MkV came out about 6 months later.

My car works the other way around. One click is the full immobiliser with dead bolting the doors where pulling on the interior door handle will not open the door. Whereas two clicks and you can.
A colleague's partner's beetle's remote locking works the same way too.

Guys,

Check out:

www.keysforvw.com or www.reflextuning.com which is the same company in the States. They charge US$45.

I have just ordered a HAA code key blank and Switchblade Fob from them, as my late 1999/2000 model GTI came with just a VW key only.

Cheers
