Title: where can i get a remote key fob??
Post by: natalietaylor91334 on December 07, 2013, 12:24:56 pm

i have bought a golf which only supplied me with one remote flip key. i have seen a few 2nd hand fobs on ebay, is there a way of buying a 2nd hand one and getting a new blade and programming it without going to vw and paying 180 quid?? there must be a cheaper way? help please. :happy2:

I contacted local auotlocksmiths when I needed a corsa key.
They reckoned had loads of reliability probs with Ebay ones, and no longer touch them. Ended up going to dealer, at least you will get a warranty, so if it stops working, they can give you another new one  :happy2:
