Key troubles

[Brian in Tucson]

If you lose your one working key, you will need an expensive service to rekey it. The cheap and effective solution is to go to your local Porsche dealer and have your key and the electronics copied/cloned. Between $250 & $400. Cheap compared to losing the key and needing a new key made from scratch.

No dealer I am aware of can “clone” the RFID pill in the key fob, that is why you must have the IPAS code tag.........

Yeah, that’s a no go. You can get the blade copied but not the little green pill. That is a new key and reprogram. Unless you have the original code. I was going to get a second key made and was quoted about 450.00. Not cheap, but a steal compared to most keyless fobs these days.

Can the profession Durametric allow this, or is that a dealer only thing?

I have a working key and a working fob with no key.

Maybe try these guys. Means going without the car for a while but what other options other than the dealer? Lost Porsche Keys
