Lost key = dealer gonna screw U for up to $250.

My second key is the "spare" key. Which mean no remote entry feature. It ran about $120 for the blade and $50 for the head. The dealer was kind enough to program the car for free.

One issue to remember: You tow the car to the dealer, they make/order a new key (blade and head), they program the car to the new key.... your done.

When you find the old key, you'll need to take the car and all the keys back to the dealer, so they car re-program the car to all of the keys....more $

Porsche... there is no substitute.
