I have never heard that a fob just stops working after a certain number of uses. Switches may wear out and boards start to fail, but not at a certain number of uses

As far as the RFID, its a little "pill" in the key fob and easily moved from one to another
If you want to mess with this on your car, be my guess. Its not worth it

There are many threads here and other forums about key fob programming and replacememnt

Sorry I may have been wrong with the durametric. But new head for 130$ is a really good price.

Newport beach Porsche did program it for free. Still trying to revive my old key fobs. They even provided the immobilizer codes when I asked!
