Hi,

I’m down to one remaining immobiliser key fob for my ‘52 110 CSW (one had a journey through the wash and died) and the last one is now looking very worn (as is my rear cross member - MOT next week!!!). Twenty years on so I can forgive it that! So I’m looking for a replacement - local garage reckons £120 but I’ve seen OEM replacements available through company called ‘Remote Key’. They send out a programmer to plug into the ecu socket and this fettles the fob - total cost £74.99. Just wondering if anyone has experience of using them or knows an alternative way of getting a new fob - would like to keep it OEM if possible.

Cheers,

Robert

Hmmm - yeah, should be a simple job but I’m sure if things can go wrong they will! Glad it worked out in the end and LR got their wallet out

Yarp - I used them for a new fob on my ‘98 90, quick and simple, cant fault the service.

Good to hear - they seem to offer a reasonable (or even good) price with convenience! Thanks for sharing your experience!
