there is a way, people are selling the procedure on ebay!

But the procedure could be:

1. Pay the dealer to it.

It may not be, but if it's possible someone will know on one of the various VAG forums. There are plenty out there for SEAT, VW, Audi and Skoda. It's just a matter of searching through them all.

5 minutes searching and I found this:

Q: How do I reprogram the remote control?
A: 1. Take the valet key, put it into the ignition and turn the key to the "on" position, just prior to starting the car.

2. Roll down the driver's side window (not required, but a good idea in case there's a problem).

3. Exit the car and close the door.

4. With a second key, physically lock the doors (don't use a remote).

5. Take the first remote to be programmed, press one of the buttons and the lights will flash once. Wait 10 seconds and press the unlock button. The doors should unlock. That first transmitter is now programmed.

6. Lock the door again (physically) with the key, (not the remote).

7. Press one of the buttons twice, the lights will flash twice. Wait 10 seconds and press the unlock button. The doors should unlock. The second transmitter is now programmed.

For a third transmitter press the button 3 times and for a fourth press 4 times.

It's for an american TT so no idea if it will work but you never know. Seeing as you have the new key you might as well try and let us know if it works.
