Title: Need new key - doors de-locked?
Post by: Mr_Orange on 20 August 2009, 19:18
Car has been de-locked by previous owner.  Can I get a new key sorted out and programmed / synchronised without the locks in the doors?  Aren't the locks used to program new keys?   :undecided:

Read that.  I have been searching the arse off this subject!   :nerd:

Is that a yes?

I'm sure I read the drivers door lock is required and you have the original key in the ignition and brainless key in the door or something like that? 

If I can do this without and just need to find someone with the software, then great as I've eyed up the correct key unit at VAGproducts!

You can code the remote with Vag Com you need Vag Tacho and the SKC for the immobilizer coding tho  :wink:

Cool, thanks!

Can Vag-tacho retrieve the secure key code or is that a VW thing?

Local VW just quoted £45 to program a new key.

I phoned Timpsons who will be cutting it and asked them about coding, they weren't sure if they could "clone" it?

How likely is it I'm wasting my time arranging a VAGtacho session?

When I get the key, should I just go to VW?   :undecided:
