This is the usual key for each set of years. Trim level and options change it, so treat it as a guide and tell us what yours looks like.
| Years | Usual key |
|---|---|
| 1997 to 2005 | Flip key, the blade folds into the fob |
| 2005 to 2014 | Fob that slots into the dash, with a start button |
| 2015 to 2023 | Flip key, the blade folds into the fob or keyless fob that stays in your pocket, with a start button |
Keyless versions of the Passat use a smart fob that has to be the right part for the car before it can be programmed. A lost fob can be deleted so it no longer opens or starts the car.
On the years with a fob that slots into the dash, the fob holds the chip the car checks before it will start. A spare is programmed through the car and both fobs are tested.
Flip keys on the Passat wear at the hinge and the buttons. If the electronics still work they can be moved into a new case, which costs less than a new key.
