you should be able to unlock the door and start the car with the spare. Lock the door with the spare first, then unlock it with the spare, and you should be able to start the car.

If you have one key (dont need remote) then yes they can program keys for you. However once you have 2 keys you can program the third one yourself if the dealer is charging you a crap load. You can also program the remotes yourself.

You can program the remote yourself, but if your getting a new metal key then no, the dealer has to program the chip inside of the metal to allow you to start the car with the new key.

Guess he has the remote ie swithblade?
How about the smart key?
Had 2 extra keys made, they open the door and start the car
but I still need to have the smart key CC like card with me
I bought a used smart key cc type on Ebay
key did not work but had it re keyed and hey it worked.
All I need now is to program the smartkey card.
any ideas beside the dealer?
