had a look last night and theres a little rectangle thing in the key body, which i am thinking is the chip. when i was looking at the hand book it said there should be a little key ring with the imobilliser number on it for programing the chip.
guess what.................
i dont have the fecking key ring!

I got a new key cut at the local VW dealer for my L plate 16v and it was very cheap (less that 20 quid). Don't think it has an immobiliser chip in it though and I think my Sigma alarm has an immobiliser built in.

My experience VW dealers and keys is good (for a change)

On my late 16V I had to have one prgrammed at VW as the ID tag was lost they had to program it from the Vin number by faxing the Factory in Wolfsburg and then prgramming it. It cost about ?25 but they had to keep the car for the day.

I always prefer original keys to ones from the highstreet as they last a lot better (quality) and they have the right badge on them
