I bought a Cayman S and it only brought a key. I know that the key at the dealer is very expensive so I bought a key from an internet porsche vendor, 160 for the key fob. Anyway got the key cut and took the car to a european car shop that told me he would be able to program the key. Long story short they weren't able because the dealer wasnt able to give them the codes. Is this some type of trick in order to make you visit the dealership? I didnt went to them first because they tend to be expensive and second because they are far. What can I do to retrieve these "codes" thanks!
i think any guy with Piwis 1 (even chinese copy) can code the keys, what device did he use to code they new keys? if he has the KTS 520, he can scan your box for the code, and recode both keys that you have, you will need to have key head on both keys.
i know this because I had to pay $4500 to get 2 keys since i lost both of them.
I was in a similar situation. Only the dealer was able to program my spare key, and they charge ~$138 for essentially 10 minutes of work.
Extortion? Borderline.
well I don't know what machine he has but he said he wasn't able to do it without the code. Now i have to die at the dealership unless i can get a shop in jacksonville that has piwis.
Well lets see what happens, hopefully they don't over charge me
