| Cheapest way to replace a key |
|
After a losing battle with the washing machine, I need a replacement spare key. My main key works fine.
I sent the damaged key to a place that refurbishes them. I was told the whole circuit board is corroded so they couldn't fix it.
So what is the cheapest way of getting a replacement key. Is it to buy one of these: http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/suitable-for-LAN...20e06148db and get someone with a Faultmate to programme it??

As long as it is a NEW and and programmed key fob, yes you can get it reprogrammed by a faultmate (or IID tool, I think) and then just get the new blade cut from a key smith.
I did this and it was by far the cheapest. Giggity - Giggity

Yeovil LR (site sponsor) will do you a new key for below £130 I think... when I got one earlier in the year I am sure it was around that amount 
http://www.disco3.co.uk/forum/topic113619.html?highlight=Yeovil
Then members in your area will pair it for you D4 Front upgrade/cut back wings n things 'taking a long time but getting there'.
D4 rear upgrade - Narpys helped with that bit
Flack for problem solving and D4 Bluetooth Install/ D4 Heated Steering wheel with Flappy paddles n BBS enabling kit
Disco Mikeys work - Serviced, EGR blanking and 4x4 software upgrade, 3 flash indicators.

Keys cannot be reprogrammed, you must have a genuine unprogrammed key for it to be programmed to your car, even then there have been instances where a new key cannot be programed to the existing module and a new module has had to be fitted along with two new keys  , in this case if a main agent has done the programing LR have been "lenient" with the charge for the module. It can when others can't,
It will when others won't,
It goes where others don't.
