New Key/Coding

Looking to get a second key for my ED30 and any old keys taken off the system.

Can anyone recommend any people who can do this please?

Thanks

There a place in Bournemouth I used for my wife's Beetle, was £125 and took half an hour. If that's anywhere near you?

As you used Midland VW before you could get your second spare key programmed by them, I bought a cheap second hand MK5 key and gutted it for the electrics and bought a new shell, blade and blank Immo4 chip.

Got the key blade cut by the local locksmiths but the final remote programming and immobiliser matching was done by the garage, I think overall it costed me around £60 to get my second key done and it works fine for me which adds piece of mind should I happen to misplace my original.

If you want old keys removing, that's dealer only.  Not sure how they'd do without changing the locks and immobilizer chips though?

I got a new key done through them recently.  Obviously OE quality key (ebay ones are sh*t) and all the coding for £240 all in.   Cheap compared to my old Alfa 147 - £500 for a new key.

Would you mind explaining a bit more detail about this? You can buy any OE mk5 key as long as it's on the same frequency as the one you have? Then bought a new shell (optional I guess?) and a new blade. Bought a blank RFID chip for the immobiliser. Got the blade cut to fit the locks and then the RFID cloned from your current key for the immo?
