Weirdness with seat memory/key programming
I bought my 2003 A4 Avant used, so it came with just one key fob (and the valet key). I bought the remote key fob part used online and a brand-new key head from the dealership, and put them together; it worked (I had to match the model number, the FCC ID, and the frequency to that of my old remote). Then, the dealership programmed all three keys to the car.

Re: Weirdness with seat memory/key programming
From my A4 manual.
To cancel a seat position assigned to a key:- Hold the MEMO button and within TEN seconds press the unlock button on the remote control key Release the MEMO button after TWO seconds To assign a seat position to a key:- Press the memory button of the seat position you wish to assign to your key Hold down the memory button and within TEN seconds press the unlock button on your remote control key Release both buttons after TWO seconds. Now that seat position has been assigned to that remote key. Each time you assign a seat position to a key, you cancel the seat position which had been assigned to that key before. Also never seen the Driver 1 / Driver 2 info you talk about in the panel; sure you are not confusing that with the trip computer display that does show a 1 or a 2 meaning the short term and long term computer options, depending on pressing the reset button on the underneath side of the wiper stalk. |

First of all—thank you for the extremely clear instructions. It all worked! :D
As for the 1/2 in the panel...how exactly does it work and what do the two numbers mean, then? |
Re: Weirdness with seat memory/key programming
1 and 2 are the two modes of the trip computer.
Both are functional all the time. Mode 1 resets to 0 if the car is turned off for more than 2 hours. It lets you record mpg/time/distance for individual shorter trips. For example I use it to see how long it's taking me to drive up to Whistler, BC. Mode 2 maintains info until you reset it manually. It's often used to measure how far you travel on a single tank of gas i.e. zero when filling the tank and read values when you go to refill the tank again. Press the button on the bottom of the wiper stalk and you will move between modes. |

Ah! This makes perfect sense now. Thanks for explaining!
