The sensation of losing your car keys is an unpleasant one, but it is one that most of us will experience at some point. The most important thing to do when you lose your keys is to try and find them again--you may find that simply retracing your steps will do the trick, and you do not have to go through all the hassle of replacing the key. If you do have to replace the key to your 1999 Audi, it is possible to replace the key with a minimum of fuss.
Gather together important documentation. This includes your car's registration, vehicle identification number (usually found on the dash) and driver's license. You should also have your proof of ownership on hand so you can show the car is not stolen.
Contact a locksmith. Tell the locksmith the make, model and VIN of the vehicle car you need a key for. The locksmith will be able to tell you whether he is able to cut that particular key for you. If not, then you would have to go an Audi dealership.
Visit the Audi dealership. It is possible they may replace the key for you for a one-off fee, or be able to point you in the right direction with regards to where you should go to replace the key.
Take your query straight to an Audi expert who will be able to give you further advice and will guide you through any processes necessary to secure a replacement key for your Audi.
