Vauxhall Key reprogram help - anyone work at Vauxhall :)

[Purple_rob]

Hi all,

Really need help on this one :).

Basically my missus has a Corsa C and the key fob part is broken. I beleive if I got a new key from Vauxhall or even bought one from ebay this will need reprogramming.


SEE FROM A FORUM
Ive just had this done myself - I bought a key off eBay and took it to vx. I didnt have my immobiliser code so I got it off vx for £16. Took it back with the code a few days later (they rang me with the code) charged £25 to reprogram the key - if u need a new key then its an extra £22 on top of reprogram. They'll do it while-u-wait as well, when I took mine it took about 2 mins (but 20 mins for the car to actually be driven into the service area...!)

Hope this helps.

PS. I tried that synchronising thing beforehand...it didnt work

Can anyone avoid me going to Vauxhall and spending a small fortune on reprogramming a key :). We do have the imobiliser code fortunately :D.

Thanks
