Audi has used the radio anti-theft feature since around 1990 to keep your stereo from working without the security code. If your battery died or your radio was disconnected, we'll retrieve it for you.
The serial number is on a label on the side of the radio chassis — you'll need to remove the radio from the dashboard to read it.
Your Vehicle Identification Number is the 17-character code that uniquely identifies your car.
Many Audi vehicles are fitted with a factory radio that uses an anti-theft security code. This Audi radio code is only needed if the stereo loses power — a dead or replaced battery, a disconnected battery, or a radio that was removed from the dash. When that happens the radio locks and will not play until the correct unlock code is entered.
We retrieve your Audi factory radio unlock code from the radio's serial number and email it to you, ready to enter using your preset buttons.
