Car showing 3 registered keys

Hi

Picked up my car last weekend and whilst having a play noticed the car showed 3 registered keys. The dealer gave me 2 plus a black plastic fob with the emergency key in.

Does this account for the 3 or do I need to go to Audi to get one deregistered?

The emergency key counts as a key. So what you have is correct.

Exactly as Eddie says, so nothing to worry about.

I tried the black plastic key when I first got the car and it didn't seem to work. But after looking at the mmi and it telling me 3 keys (and owning the car from new) I figured it must work. It tried it again and found it only works when held up against the sensor part of the dash.
