Key fod is 9115104 @ £46.34 Inc VAT Retail and then anything from £25.00 upwards for the car pass, depends on the dealer you use.

Once you have that a quick nip round the TB's and while your having a cuppa he can be out in the cold programing it for you, job done ;)
Correct me if I'm wrong, Andy, but Timpsons were able to read the PIN on my orlando with the machine they used to program the key. Couldn't a tech 2 do this?
GM made a pigs ear of securing some of there cars. Possibly on purpose for the Orlando, as nobody would nick it. For unencrypted shite, there are tools to read it out :y
I liked it better when you were missing. ;D
I get that a lot for some reason ::)

Hi Webby, another satisfied Corsa C owner then. :y :y :y

I know this forum is the best but if you want another one to delve into have a look on http://www.corsa-c.co.uk/forum/showthread.php?437946-New-member-1.2-SXI-flame-red .

Halfway down the page Pugh125k (one of the admins ) does key fobs if you can't get sorted with Martin Imber.

And just for Webby, have a look at this thread for all the things you can do including a remap http://www.corsa-c.co.uk/forum/showthread.php?479594-My-First-Car-and-Called-Her-Maverick

There are plenty of people on OOF who can repair fobs, beyond a (semi-ex) member who never comes on here to help any more ;)

Thanks LC0.

I'll see what MI says and if needed will take to the dealers.

Out of interest... did they need any codes or anything?

I just drove the car down there and left it, with the old key, till lunchtime. I didn't give them any codes, so unless they found them buried in the glove box I doubt they used them. However this is the same dealer that the car was originally purchased from, so perhaps they keep such details on their 'puter.

Hey Webby, key costs aside , have you had a look at those mods.

I quite fancy some SXi wheels (painted grey of course,) 235x34 tyres (should be 185 but what the hell), some Blue LEDs , fat exhaust chrome tailpipe, debadging, tints. Also looking for some coilovers and lowering springs to limit just where I can go.

Is yours the SXi with collapsed drivers seat problem where fat people slide in? Stay away from the engine remap, waste of money. Better selling and getting a 1.8Sri
