One key woes!!
-> 206 Problems

#1: One key woes!! Author: poncho, Location: Margate Kent PostPosted: Tue Jan 04, 2011 2:29 pm

Evening, My daughters 206 only came with one key,(not a remote locking one) I'm told that it has a chip inside and to get a replacement you need a code.
We bought the car with no paperwork, no owners handbook or radio code Is it a dealer only job to get this key cut or does someone know of an alternative way?
Bit cheeky as a first post but if the daughter loses the only key then are we looking at a whole new lock set and immobilizer?

Most key cutters have machines that will read the code and write it onto a new chip for a new key. expect to pay around £70.

You paid £10 for a new key that was coded to your car? And they came out to you?
