#1: The chip inside the key :( Author: smiddies, Location: BrightonPosted: Wed Feb 02, 2011 5:47 am ---- My key has had water damage and needs new chip!! Went to dealer said £69 exc VAT,
And thats literally just the chip, not to program it etc etc! Luckily I have the code for it though
Does that sound right???? Last edited by smiddies on Wed Feb 02, 2011 5:49 am; edited 1 time in total

Not cheap - we had to get a new one for our Kia - £180.

#5: Re: The chip inside the key :( Author: -RAJ-, Location: COVPosted: Wed Feb 02, 2011 7:54 am ---- oh i see, what i meant was that if a local locksmiths can make spare car keys surely they will have the chips and maybe they would be cheaper than the dealer prices

Then sell the brand new key on eBay
