Is Vx the only place I can get a spare key?
« on: 17 March 2014, 16:27:25 »
Hello!

Is the only place I can get a spare key from Vauxhall?

I have found the key code and immobiliser code card and wondered if there is anywhere that would be cheaper than Vauxhall to get one from?

Also, I had superb service from All German Parts this afternoon when needing a gasket to go between the manifold and cat :)  :y

Thanks, Paul

Fob & uncoded gubbins from VX (around £30). Blade from the bay. Then a TechII to program it

Thank you :) I'm not sure what you mean by blade? I'm new here and haven't quite grasped the lingo yet  :-[

Ahh I see. I thought that's what you meant but wasn't sure.

Thank you for your help :)

But worth noting that it lives there. Very easily lost if you don't know  :y

Just make sure you get the right blade. Should be a number stamped on it IIRC

Ok, I'll have a look when the wife gets in as she had the car today as it was fitted with new cat and wishbones. I just have only one key, hence why I'm asking about another :)

Thank you for your help :)

Thank you :) She's only about 20 mins away now so I'll have a look soon. I was sold the car with only one key and the guy I bought it from said he bought it with only one key. So I'm just after the cheapest way of getting a spare. I thought going to Vx direct may cost quite a bit though.

I think you're looking at around £100 all in. Compared to the £225 that Merc charges, it's quite cheap!  ::)  ;)
