Not sure if this is right section but if not admin please move it.
I own a 1996 phase 1 d turbo with the coded imbobliser (one were u put a four digit code in to start the car) right im after a new key
can I just buy another key (second hand 2 button one) and get a new blade in it cut to the same as mine and will that be ok?
Or dose the key have a chip in it that has to be coded?
Any help welcome

Chip is unique to the car you can reprogram the key to your car though there's a thread in the guides section on how to do it

Yeah but if it has the key pad does it need to be? I thought the chip was an imobiliser thing?

Yeah, but to turn off the immobiliser you enter the code in the pin pad.

Yer this is why I thought if there is no chip in the key cos of the manual coded imbobliser then it would save haveing to get the key programed. But just wanted to check before I go on the look out for some keys
So I just took my key apart and theres no chip, so is it just a case of getting another key and getting the blade cut same as mine? Also is it possible to use a key that is chipped? Cos could just pull chip out and bin in as it shouldnt affect it m I rite?

yes to all your questions mate, it's that simple yeah . . .to test if an infared key works press the button and view the transmitter through a camera/phone and you will see red line if it's working . . . . .
programming is easy too . .
