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  

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

Ignore the red line, just shows transponder chip

[theonewhosmokes]

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

Thank you for your help

...., just shows transponder chip

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

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 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!
