saxo keys
 

anyone know where i can get another spare key cut for my vtr?

how much would citroen charge, and could my local key maker thing make me one?

Will have to be citroen to do it as it will need a transponder for the immoboliser unless you have a keypad immoboliser.

citroen will charge around £80 +vat

your local key cutting shop should be around £20 - £30

As jaytee said it has to be cut by Citroen as it needs the transponder chip unless it has a keypad immobiliser

ahhh thats an effort , i only have the one key but guess i'll just deal with it

You can get a copy of your key cut and programmed at a timpsons locksmith.

what a load of rubbish some people talk yo can get your key cut at any decent locksmith who will have a unit for reading the transponder code you DO NOT need to go to citroen

my saxo has the keypad immobiliser... so will i be able to go to any old key cutter and get a replacement? It doesnt need any special electric bollocks put in it?

If you do not have the official car manual that came with your car with your car keys immobiliser code you will need the key to be sorted at Citroen I was told... that would cost £150 (if they have to find the immobiliser code) However if you have the code it will cost £100.

Again another rip-off via citroen.

if you have a keypad you can cut your key anywhere as it dont have the chip. If you have the chipped key anywhere that has a key programmer can do it ie wilco..... they cut ur key then put it in a little device that reads the code then put the cut one in and it writes the code into the chip job done. £25.

Trust me you do not need to go to citroen i had mine cut by wilco, its not got the citroen badge in but id rather have £50 odd in my pocket and have a key with no markings as it does the same thing.

No you don't. You just have to take your key with the chip in it and they find the code from it and duplicate it on to a new key.
