New Key fob

[ScoobyA4]

i need a new key fob. the bit to attach the key to a ring is dead and gone . and it appears there is little i can do. i've split the key and its the part with the remote and battery.

is there anything i can do other than go to the dealer? any ideas on costs?

Was yours the flip out one mate? Loads of blank ones on ebay! Just need to re-calibrate it to your remote system in the car!

 

[ScoobyA4]

aye, it is! just had a look and they are all 3 button. mine is 2. does that matter?

How much hassle is it to re-calibrate and will everything work as is?

You will need a two button remote (not from USA)

Swap the transponder capsule out of your broken remote, and then sync your new remote to the car to enable remote locking.
