Hi all, I'm new to V50 pages of this forum but semi-regular on the 850 / V70 section.

Looking for some assistance please. Just bought a '08 V50 D5 SE Lux with 97k on the clock.

Came with 2 keys, 1 working perfectly, one chewed by the previous owners dog. I bought a replacement case from Ebay and transfered the PCB & battery. It locks/unlocks the car perfectly, however, when I tried to start the car, it wouldn't turn over & the message on the dash display says key not recognised.

My question are;
1. Presumably the damaged case has some sort coding which the car recognises?
2. I'm assuming the car & key need to go to Volvo to be programmed?
3. Any idea of the cost?

Thanks, Gerry
