You need to have a key with an original transponder chip (little glass cylinder) in the ignition, and turned on.

It shouldn't matter is the new key you are trying to code to the central locking has a transponder chip or not, that's only used for actually starting the car.

You have to (iirc):

1. Turn on ignition with original key, and leave it in.
2. Lock the door manually (i.e. put key in lock and turn it) (Might also be a good idea to have the drivers window open!!)
3. Press unlock on the new key(horn should blip, but mine didn't. :confused: Wait about 5 seconds and then press unlock again. The doors should unlock.
4. That's it!!

All you need to do then is get the key cut somewhere, swap the transponder chip over from your old key and you're sorted. :thumbup:

im soo confused, do u just get a key with the same MHz rate as your and your good to go or does this part number thing matter, surely the Mhz is so the trasmitter responds to the key, nothing else should really matter i wouldnt think, all the paert number will be is the one for whatever style of key you have i would be thinking
I think the part number is more important than the MHz rating TBH, all of them transmit on 433.92 MHZ anyway. I tried two different keys on mine, and they were but 433MHz, and only 1 worked. Depends on the age of your car I think. They must transmit a different signal, albeit on the same frequency.

anybody know where i can get a new transponder instead of going to Seat? I got mine out and lost it completely and now my new flipkey won't start the engine. Seat want £40.80 (rip-off) so i don't know where else i can get one!

Also i don't know why the transponder in the Brand new key won't just program to my car! Technology does my head it in. Any replies? Cheers guys

Wish this thread could be compressed, falling asleep reading through it lol!

My original key doesn't state what Mhz it is on the side, any other way to find?

what i would do is get your self a key cut then try and get the remote part working, most of the remotes will clip into the standard key balde Y part so if yours doesnt work then pop it on ebaty and get another

you can program the remote with what you have (original key in ignition, new one in door) but the immob requires a SKC and vagcom or a dealer
