Renault key coding

lilangel_2

Hi

Does anyone know where I can possibly get a renault key card coded in South Wales without having to visit the dealer who would like to charge me ripping off fee of £212 :eek::eek::eek:

Cut a long story short I only have 1 keycard for my Espace and it's becoming very temperamental when trying to open my car if I hold it in a certain place and press the open or shut button sometimes it works sometimes it doesn't. Very temperamental! So beginning of the end is I need a new Card and dont want to pay renault's prices.

Does anyone else code these cards oh and I need it done asap as I'm going away a week today with my car so really don't want to be stuck down where I am.

Thanks for your help in advance

First of all get the remote battery checked/replaced, they ony cost a few quid.

I've changed the battery chic it's the connection that is the problem and I've been told it can't be repaired x

Your best bet is looking in Yellow Pages for car locksmiths who offer coding services for Renault vehicles - a 'man in a van' style service. My mate paid £120 for a new genuine Renault key for his car, cut and coded. I think Renault dealers wanted over £200.

I used this company if its any help. Cost me £18 for my Citroen and they cut the key via a photograph.
