Need a new car key programmed

[DeclanP]

Recently bought a SAAB 93 (06) up north which came with one key and despite requests, there is no second key coming from the supplier. I can purchase a key on ebay for a tenner or so but where can I get it programmed to suit the car that I have and how much will it cost? Any help would be grateful

I had the same problem after buying a car from the UK. So I bought a new one in the saab dealer and he reprogrammed both keys for €120 euro. This was about 18 month ago for a Saab 93 TiD 2004

Unfortunately it is a main dealer only job as they access the programming info thru the Saab intranet. I would be careful about buying a key off ebay as you would need to make sure it has the correct chip in it for the ECU in your car.
