My comprehensive policy covers such things including windscreen cover.

Any advice welcomed.

(V70, 2005, 2.4, diesel, 150000miles)

So I purchased the car with only one key and now ive gone and lost that one key.

The vehicle is open (Mid age moment again).

Tried auto replacement key guys and all backing away from it, due the complicated immobilser set up. Volvo havnt got back to me but suspect the cost is astronomical.

Is it correct that it linked to the ecu and potential the mirror etc? thus its costly.
Do I have any option?
Dont need it lock just start?
Happy to pay £200- 300.

Manchester area. But would have to be a on the drive job.
Or its heading to the scrap man.

Thanks


Find the key isnt proving to be success, due to not sure where I lost it while being drunk.

try a local independent who has a vida subscription. try read view in accrington ask for adam or hallmark in stockport both good indies and much cheaper than main dealers. there is also trevor burgess in hyde .

Yes you need CEM,REM,ECU,Alarm module, rear view mirror, ignition lock door lock and key if you want to do it properly or from a donor vehicle that is the same year and engine, then I guess Volvo needs to make sure everything talks to itself.

all the parts needed to do this would by far out weigh the cost of a key . service key is the cheapest option . dealers always quote for a 5 button fob which is not needed.
