OK guys il just state this, I didn't ask for a debate on who was was right or wrong, or what is programmed to what or opinions on anything to do with this, I asked if anyone could help. I found on source from volvo that described how car and key are set to talk to each other and the code to unlock the car system (not the key) is only available from volvo. That is the part that can take 5 hours.... This is needed to tell the car to recognise and accept the key. Hence why keys simply cannot be cloned as easmch key has a unique transponder key.... Annywayyy.....
I think I may be sorted now, a guy local to me sells used keys that have been prepped for re programming, the fact remains to be proven if it can be done, I believe it can..We will see who is right. I will keep you informed.

im amazed that he came on here asking for help and then proceeded to argue the point with knowledgeable experts in this field. another well know forum member left because of this kind of thing an he was a great source of great information and also had a youtube channel dedicated to volvo repair
