Title: Key programming
Post by: tanker12uk on 08 February 2022, 14:49:19

Hi Guys
I have just got my Omega back sold it as I could not afford the fuel with the mileage I was doing now retired so I can and she was for sale so got her back. Problem only one key and that was ropey so the stealers say keys fobs of Omegas are now a non serviced item. But they gave me a source in London who have original GM stock keys and fobs not cheap [KLCK.Ltd]
But they dont program them so is there a Tech 2 master in the Saltburn/Redcar area who could reprogram my new fob for me.
its the 3 button remote for a 3.2 Elite saloon
cheers Richard

Timpsons will cut and program a new key for you, providing you have the blade from an old one.

I have used KLCK previously on recommendation from my local VX dealer for a replacement Omega ignition barrell matched to the original key no. I thought the price was ok at the time - a lot cheaper than through VX themselves.

Hi Guys
Thanks for your advice I have been lucky and found an Auto Electrician. Who it appears in this area are a dying breed. He popped round to me it took 5-10 mins and cost me £40.00 less than half of what one guy wanted
He knows if way around an Omega as he said hes ha a few of them seems to be a Vauxhall guy as hes run Vectra's and Calibra's as well 
Not sure I'm allowed to post his contact number but I have it if anyone needs it for work in the Teesside area
