The signal is sent into the air by the microphone that converts it into an audio file. The audio files are compared to determine how similar they are and how close they are. If they are similar enough the system will send an alert signal to the key and transmit an ID signal that is in line with the vehicle.

3. Keyless Entry

Keyless entry is an excellent convenience, particularly when you're carrying kids, groceries or other equipment. You can unlock your car by simply pressing a button or sensor located on the handle of the door (some models also have this technology inside the lock). If you're carrying the key fob, it'll send an alert to activate the car's sensors so that it can sense that you're nearby and your hand is on the button. This will prevent any unauthorized use of the vehicle, by making sure that only you have access to its doors.
Another feature that is typically included in keyless entry systems is the ability to remote start your car without the use of a key. Sensors that are mounted in the tailgate or trunk and, sometimes, within the doors of the vehicle, are employed to accomplish this. The sensors will open the doors and turn on the engine of the vehicle if the fob is within 5 feet. Then, you press a button to start your car. This is a great method to get your car warm and toasty before you leave for work in the morning or when it's cold outside.
Some of the most advanced keyless entry systems don't even require fobs. The cars can be started and unlocked with a smartphone application. This is a great option for business owners or families who would like their employees to have access to their company cars. Some keyless entry systems can even remember the driver's preferred seating position and cabin temperature. This could help you save time when you pull up to a parking lot.
Some of the more advanced versions of keyless entry systems have an activated rear hatch which will automatically shut and secure your cargo area by simply tapping your foot. This technology is offered in a variety of Audi models and can be included as an option in the standard model, or as an upgrade, based on the model. These systems are not 100% secure, and they can be bypassed by thieves who have some technical knowledge.

In contrast to many other vehicle brands, Audi does not offer remote start on its vehicles in a factory capacity. Audi offers a second option that has similar features to remote start, called the Audi Advanced Key.

To activate this feature, you will need to have your key fob in your pocket and be close enough to the vehicle. Sensors in the door handles or trunk will be activated once you and your key fob are within five feet of the car. If you receive an unambiguous signal and the correct code the vehicle will allow you to lock the doors or start the engine.
With the press of a button, you can quickly enter your Audi A4 and begin driving without having to search around in your purse or pockets to find the keys. This feature is perfect for those who spend much time in a parking lot and can be beneficial if you need to quickly warm up your vehicle to commute or run errands.
