Hi, has anyone in Australia had any experience programing a new key to their vehicle? I have had 2 reports from my locksmith, one says he can, one says its risky and may go into lockdown mode. Any experiences would be appreciated.
There is a downloadable manual in the resource section, the programming instructions are in there, you can do it yourself, and I don't think there is any risk of a 'lock down"
As far as I know, these vehicles are not immobilizer equipped, programming the key just allows it to be used to remotely lock/unlock the doors
Thank you, My Aussie i0 is immobilised. I eventually found a locksmith willing to take on the task of cloning the chip in the key head. All works well now.
