Was after a second flip key the remote locking, but seemed to have misplaced the plastic thing with the code on it? Seen a few people selling the keys on ebay, would i just buy one and take it to my dealer and then get the blade cut? bit of a noob! thanks

My remote key packed up a while ago. I gotr a new battery and cleaned all the contacts and no joy. So tried re-programming it with as few guides on here and still no joy. I thought maybe the trasponder itself was screwed so i bought another key of ebay and tried to program that using the same...

Could anyone guide me as to what model flip key I need for my MK3 Cupra? The standard key says 'SIEMENS 433.92mhz'... I assume I just need to buy a blank key and chipset then have it programmed? How much is a programme going to cost roughly? Thanks

Okay so the silver keyring bar thing at the top of the key, has come away from the fob at one side, so no keyring can be attached to the fob, which is a bit of a pain!! Perhaps silly question, but as my car is still under Seat warranty, would the keyfob be covered?? Im thinking probably no...

Hi, I read the sticky on flip key and stating to remove the transponder from the spare and putting it in the new flip key. However If I buy a blank flip key with a new unprogrammed transponder as below can I program this myself? or does it require a dealer...

I've a Leon 2002 1.8T AUQ engine 45k miles. Engine doesn't cut off when key taken out (will switch off when put in reverse!!!). Engine runs fine. Trentons in Hull say ECU has corrosion, which they cleaned up. Appears to have fixed problem with engine not switching off. They say ECU...

Does anyone know if VW key fobs are interchangeable with SEAT? If I buy a VW key fob HLO 1KO 959 753 G for my 2006 Leon, will I be able to reprogramme the transponder? The part number is exactly the same as my Leon fob Cheers!

I noticed my big key fob with buttons used to immboizle the car and had to use the spare key, what would cause this and what would it take to get it working again.

Hi all, I am looking to buy a used key fob from ebay for my 2006 Leon TFSI. Part number HLO 1K0 959 753 N 434 mhz off a VW. The part number on my current key is HLO 1K0 959 753 G, so the only difference is the N and G. Will this matter? Also, I have read that the transponder is a one time...

Is it right that with the Ibiza 1.4 Sport you get one remote key & one plain old normal one? Sorry for a silly question but it's something i wanted to know :doh:

Hi All, Just got my new LCR, but the radio code is missing, Rocky Rocastle is going to have a look at home for it. But if he cannot find anybody know how to get one, other than paying SEAT??? cheers

I have an '09 plate Leon TSi, which has developed a strange, intermittent problem recently. When I "turn off" the engine and remove the key, the engine continues to run, with both the handbrake and seatbelt lights illuminated on the dash. The only way I can turn it off is by putting the key...

Hi All, I am new to this forum but was hoping someone may be able to help me out. I have a 2001 Seat Leon TDi S & a while ago the battery went in the key remote. I bought a replacement battery & after a look on the internet for re-programming I seemed to get it working again (using either...

Good evening fellow SCNers, The car no longer responds to car key lock button presses (my god this is hard to discribe lol). Now logic would say that the battery has run out however the little red led is flashing still on the key which is throwing me. I now lock the car manually and unlock...

Hi, I've never had a working Fob for my car so i've always opened it using the key, over the last few days the key stopped returning to the centre when i locked/unlocked. Now the car will not unlock at all from the door, it will lock OK. This also means the alarm goes off if i try to get...

My leon has lost the ability to open all the doors off the keyfob. It used to be that when you press the keyfob once it would open the drivers door, then a second keyfob button press would open all the other doors and the boot. Problem is that now no matter how often you press the button it...
