Autel MaxiIM IKEY IKEYVW3T — 3-Button Volkswagen-Style Programmable Smart Key

The IKEYVW3T is a Premium-tier Autel IKEY programmable smart key built in the Volkswagen keyhead style. Three buttons: Lock, Unlock, Trunk. A Volkswagen-type emergency blade is included. This is a universal programmable blank — unprogrammed from the factory — and programs with any Autel IM tablet. Compatible with 315 MHz and 415 MHz vehicle systems, with up to 40-meter transmission range.

Volkswagen Smart Key Work in Context

VW/Audi key programming is among the more demanding segments in the IMMO world. VW uses the Megamos/ID48 chip family and later MQB-platform security systems that require specific procedures. The IKEYVW3T is the blank — your IM tablet and optional adapter determine whether you can complete the programming on a specific VW model.

For VW and Audi work specifically, the IMKPA Key Programming Adapter Kit ($345) may be required to enable full VW/Audi and Mercedes-Benz capability on IM608 series tablets. Confirm your tablet's coverage before scheduling a VW AKL job.

The IM508S handles basic VW add-key and key learning on older platforms.
