all the frequencies are the same, its just on some keys it is rounded up, and others its rounded down when written on the key

HLO 1JO 959 753 AH
HLO 1JO 959 753 AG

thats strange mine doesnt have it ?
did post 312 shed any light for the markings?
right have opened the key up and found :
434 MHZ
VW 3B0 959 753L
SEAT 1MO 959 753E
SKODA 6YO 959 753E
HELLO 009 498
so could anybody help me with what part number key i need or do i just need any that is 434 MHZ ?
Exactly the same numbers that are in mine. I've ordered a key from eBay, part no: 1J0 959 753 DA, 434 MHZ. I'm not 100% sure it will work but i'll post again once it's cut and coded.
Have you recieved your key ? did it work ?
Yeah, got it on Wednesday. I've been trying to get it cut today and yesterday but two different Timpsons near my work said they wouldnt touch it. I've found a Timpsons who will cut it for me but the bit on their drill was too small so they've had to order a thicker one which wont be in till middle of next week!
I'll defo post my results once it's cut and coded......eventually!
That would be great as i collected my new ( to me ) sportrider tonight & my key has the same yellow card / codes.
Mine is a 1.9 tdi on an 2008 reg, what year is yours ?
Right, finally got my key cut and coded to the car!
I took the key to my local Timpsons and they cut the blade for a fiver. On first try the key wouldn't fit either the ignition barrel or the door locks so I took the key back and the guy skimmed a bit more from the centre of the blade and it fits fine.
I dismantled the spare remoteless key to get the transponder out, had to use a bit of nail polish remover to loosen the glue. Stuck the transponder in the new flip key and went outside to code the new key.
The eBay seller (thekeyservice) I used sent me a PDF and a video showing the assembly and coding process for the key but the coding process didn't work at all. I used another coding procedure that I found on this thread and it worked fine, the dash blipped when the key was coded.
The key has 3 buttons and all the buttons work, I can now open and close the boot without unlocking the rest of the car.
cbr40017, that's the same seller I used and that key is the same as mine so should work with your car. That auction is only for the remote part of the fob, you'd need to by the top end seperate with a blank blade on it. I only know this because I ordered this one first and when I emailled the seller asking for a SEAT badge he informed me that the badge came with the top part of the fob
I used this method for coding mine:
Unlocked the car at the drivers door manually with my remoteless spare key and left the key in the door. I then turned the iginition on with my old remote key. I stuck my arm out the window and locked the car manually with the spare in the door. I pressed lock on the new flip key once and then pressed and held unlock on the new flip key for approx 3 seconds and the car horn/alarm blipped when the key was coded. Turned off the ignition and removed the spare from the door and then tried out the new key.
I've driven around all day in the car with the new key and its worked fine......i've still ahd my old remote in my pocket just incase though!
