FAQ

Frequently asked questions

Why is my Audi A3 radio asking for a code?
The radio locked itself when it lost power, usually after a battery change or a repair. It is standard Audi anti-theft behaviour, the unit is fine and the code brings it straight back.
What does an Audi A3 radio serial look like?
A 14-character serial starting AUZ, for example AUZ1Z1F6412082, printed on the label on the radio casing. Enter the whole serial including the AUZ prefix.
Do I need to remove the radio in an A3?
For the Concert, Symphony and Chorus units, yes. The serial is on the casing label, and the unit slides out with standard release keys in a couple of minutes. If your A3 has the RNS-E navigation unit, that one can show its serial on screen, see the RNS-E page for the exact route.
How do I enter the code on an A3?
Ignition on, the display shows SAFE then 1000. Use the preset buttons to set each digit, button 1 for the first, button 2 for the second and so on, then confirm and the radio unlocks. Take it slowly, repeated wrong entries add a waiting period.
The dealer wanted proof of ownership and a booking. Do you need any of that?
No. The code is generated from the radio serial itself, so there is no booking, no logbook check and no waiting room. Read the serial from the unit, order, and enter the code. For other Audi models, our main Audi radio code page covers the full range by serial or VIN.
