- Versatility in a compact form: with a double‑sided blade, you gain flexibility during the cutting process, especially when access to only one side is feasible.
Practical tips for use
- Confirm blade compatibility first: VL6, VL10, or V10PH profiles correspond to specific Audi lock and ignition systems—verify your model’s blade type before cutting.
- Have the blank cut by a qualified technician or use established key‑cutting equipment to ensure precise alignment and proper engagement with the lock cylinders.
- After cutting, have the completed key tested for both door and ignition operation, and arrange for any necessary transponder programming through a licensed professional if your vehicle uses immobilizer technology.
- Store blanks in a cool, dry place to prevent any oxidation or surface wear on the finish.
