Lonsdor k518 key programmer new test report from Mr. Henderson.
2016 VW Golf 7 MQB NEC35XX/VDO Add Spare Key Success
Done in 10-15mins
“Also one note I forgot was, when Lonsdor K518ISE asks how many keys to program you must input 2 although I only programed 1 key, I think it reprograms the original at the same time”
