    Touareg key with other models

    Hi Folks,

    Hoping someone with some tech knowledge can comment. I am pondering if it's possible to program a Touareg key (new 2013+ model) to use with my new Tiguan (mk2, 2017).

    My partner and I each got a new Tiguan and I am looking at ways to differentiate our keys beyond using silicone or metal covers.

    The Tig has Kessy and as such no physical ignition barrel so the shape of the Touareg key makes no difference.

    Thanks in advance.

    First world problems mate!
    You lucky bugger, owning two Tiggies

    How about some carbon fibre wrap to 'man' yours up a bit:
    VW Tiguan Scirocco Passat 3 Carbon look Key sticker side LED
    Not sure if that is the right model, but you'll get the gist.

    Is there a VW badge on the key ? Maybe get a different logo on one ?

    Key Chains? Or do you both carry *just* the keys?

    Talk about making a mountain out of a molehill. Buy two different $2 keychains and attach to the keys

    If you have sold the Touareg a nice seller would have handed over all the keys to the new owner

    You misunderstand. The Touareg key fobs can be had for quite cheap from China. We only carry keys, and as it stands they look face similar. I was merely looking for a creative solution.

    We have two "keys" for the Passat and one has the seat settings for me and the other for my wife who is much shorter than me.

    We got given key tags when we bought it Mine has a straight bar hers has a round emblem on the chain No chance of mistaking them

    Cost absolutely nothing and we know they work.
