Coverage and how to read this overview

Counts describe captured discussions, not unique people or a diagnosis. Author identities are not reliably stored. Exact duplicate evidence is counted once across matching discussions; one discussion counts at most once per action/state. Multiple repairs reported together remain a combination. Suggestions and failed attempts do not establish a fix. Matches cover whole discussions and can include related faults, model variants and incomplete threads.

9 eligible posts · 0 unverified posts · 1 discussions match the subject in their title or opening post.

0 evidence records excluded for query context · 0 excluded by outcome qualification · 0 adjusted by outcome qualification.

0 acknowledgements have no verified action link; they do not establish a repair result.

POST 1 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

Hi, Looking for some advice, lost a set of 997.1 keys on holiday a few years back, and now that I'm thinking of selling, I need to replace the lost key. Called Porsche in Glasgow today, and they are quoting £300+ for a key and a further £90 for coding + VAT I'm not wanting to put myself out too much i,e, heard of ways of buying a key from ebay, getting someone else to cut, then someone else to code, all seems a bit of a hassle and dare I say risk (apologies if I'm wrong about the risk factor). Does any one have any other experiences of replacing a similar type key i.e. Porsche, Chip etc without spending close to £500? Any advise would be greatly received T

POST 2Original post

Have you tried your local auto locksmiths? I had similar trouble getting a duplicate of my W221 key and was surprised to learn that it was only possible at the Merc dealers, but the ‘good news’ was that it was ‘only’ a smidgen over £300 all in…

POST 3 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

No. My first call was to Porsche. But will certainly give them a call. Thanks 👍

POST 4Original post

Was there an update to this as I am in the same position.

POST 5Original post

I paid about £160 including coding through a local indi 4 years ago so I had a spare key.

POST 6Original post

Thanks. Who was that and was it a new gen 2 key? A couple of places I tried want 400.
