Summary
Supersedes Technical Service Bulletin Group 57 number 15-09 dated April 16, 2015. The message "Is key in the vehicle?" is displayed in the information panel even though the key is in the vehicle. This condition occurs intermittently in vehicles with Audi advanced key. This condition is a result of incorrect parameterization programmed into the B7 access start module from the factory. Because of the incorrect parameters, the access start module does not wait long enough for the remote key to respond to a location request. As a result, the module does not see the remote key and the message is displayed.

Owners of these vehicles have filed 8 complaints in the electrical category.
