[Funkyfin2000]

Coded my own flip key with the SKC code!!!! WAHOOO!!!

So FunkyFin, how did you finally get your SKC code ?

Did you have the heart stopping moment when you set the numbers of keys to zero (to clear it out) and then coding the first key failed ?

It happened to me, and I have read of it doing the same for others !
Worked when I repeated things though..

Alls well that ends well, all sorted now !

See for yourselves lads. There's nothing on the fob but for the CE mark

Just for anyone in the future, the new keys that arent marked on the outside there is a disc under the battery that has all the codes on it

 

[lukey]

Can anyone thats got their keys cut tell me exactly where they got it done, i went to my local timpsons they just said they dont have the facility to cut the key blade

 

[Funkyfin2000]

I went to lichfield lock and key, did it perfectly! for £1.50!

Andy - Yeah i got my SKC with a cable and free software DEAD EASY!!!!

nope, no problems in coding went like a DREAM!!!

 

[lukey]

i managed to get mine cut for £3 at the tiniest little key cutting place that from the outside looked like a handbag shop and it works perfect, got a seat badge for the back 2 days after i ordered it too

the girlfriend managed to get mine cut at thorpes in newcastle (for any of u northerners). I tried 10 placesand not 1 could she tries 1 and manages.

**update** Got mine working and it is amazing (love you davels for sending me it)

 

[Funkyfin2000]

good work dude

 

[dredwerker]

Just got my 3 button Alhambra key cut at Timpsons(George Street Hove) for £6 I have been quoted between nothing much(charity tin) to £32 by a mobile dealer.

I need help though I have my original blippy key and it broke hence the need for a new key how do I recode the alarm part. The red light doesnt work I think the blipper part of the key is terminal.

I am getting vag-com to do the immobiliser part but I am not sure whether that can match the car to the alarm.

I am going to try a mates key by sticking the board in his key. If he willl allow me to take his key apart .

Apart from that any ideas most welcome and thanks to everyone for their contribution to the flip key thread.

I have been watching this thread for some time now but am still a little unsure, can i ask for some confirmation from the Gus / Girls that have acuatally done it.
My car is a Mk3 Ibiza Sport
My standard key is Siemens 433.97 MHZ

1:Can i use a VW/Seat 433 or 434 MHZ key ? or eather one ,does it matter ?

2: As i dont have VAGcom can i take the transponder from my spare key & use that in a flip key ?

3:Get new blade cut at local locksmiths ?

4:match to car with guide ?

Thanks for any info
