Use a Vagcom scan tool (or pay some who has it) First scan the vehicle for all history and codes and to confirm the key transponder frequency has been programed into the PCM make sure you have 2 different frequency's programed i.e each key has its own signature. Who did the bench test on the Digifant / PCM?(Vw's name Digifant engine management)
