Default Have never used a VAG-COM before but need to program my key on my B5

I have a 1998.5 Audi A4. I bought the car w/ only 1 key, and as I understand it, I can reprogram the key w/ either getting a second key, or using a vag-com.

I have NEVER used the VAG-COM before, but will either buy one, or borrow a friend's... how do I go about programming my key so the remote opens?

Also, I think I read it is possible to add the roll windows down + open sunroof w/ turning the key as well as auto-lock when driving over 25mph.

How do I do this? Is there a step-by-step procedure? I might have a friend w/ me, but not sure if they have ever reprogrammed a key.

Thanks!

Default Awesome! So i only need the SKC if I am matching a brand new key?

My key opens the doors manually and starts the car, just the buttons lost the programming.

you don't even need that, since you don't have Immobilizer

Default It didn't work: Under adaptation 10, when i hit 01 or 21, then "read" both times it came up with

Not found or invalid, so I never got a chance to enter a "new value".

I tried 46-Central locking (35 was listed for my car on the site), but obvisouly it said "not found".

Scanning for codes it did come up w/ something like adaptation limit exceeded for remote or something along those lines...

does this mean I have to get a 2nd key???
