Replacement key
#1
Hi.  The good news is I have s shiny new (to me) Astra. The bad news is it came with just one key, and no "key code card" from a non-franchise dealer.  What are my options?  There are people on the web advertising a call out service, or I can of course go to my local Vauxhall dealer.  There are spare key fobs advertised on-line and my local locksmith will cut the key blade for £15, but obviously I need someone who can program it in to the immobiliser.  It would be nice if the missing key could be cancelled off the immobiliser, too.  I haven't got the V5C log book back yet, just the sales receipt and insurance for the car.  Thanks!  Jonathan.

The best thing to do is get the code from Vauxhall you will need the logbook and proof of ID.

Get a new key off eBay and have it cut then find a small garage that can program it up.

If your in the Bournemouth area (but I'm guessing your in London by the username) I can program keys.
