Dave,

I should rephrase my earlier statement. My son's '97 A6 came with 
a newer style key fob, not the switchblade key. He then purchased 
a switchblade key and programmed it to work with his car following 
the instructions in the owner's manual (key in ignition, key in 
door lock, etc).

My point was that the '97 and later systems are compatible with 
the switchblade key, unlike any of the earlier cars.

I should also mention that his range is quite short, say no more 
than 10 feet.
