Is there a vw/audi bcm2 all-keys-lost read shop in Chicago I should use instead?

Does Illinois vehicle inspection or emissions testing affect this service?
Illinois requires emissions testing in the Chicago and Metro-East St. Louis areas; downstate counties are exempt. Our service is bench module programming only — you remain responsible for your vehicle's compliance with all Illinois and federal requirements.
Is this a retail all-keys-lost service?
It is wholesale — built for locksmiths and key-programming shops who have the customer and the tooling but need the BCM2 read. If you are a vehicle owner, you will still need a locksmith to cut and program the key; we can extract the data, but the on-car programming is theirs to do.
Which cars are covered?
Primarily the B8 Audi A4/S4, 8T A5/S5, and 8R Q5 from roughly 2008-2016, plus close platform cousins. Send the VIN or a photo of the module part number and we confirm before you ship — the BCM2 family spans several variants and not all behave identically.
