Key Fob Type

[sambulance]

Hi all.

I have searched the faq and forum to no avail. I need to get a second key for my sharan 2001 tdi auy mk2 as when i purchased the car the owner could only find one of the keys. This key is a sealed black key without a built in fob. For the replacement I would like a built in fob but without a compirison i am unsure if i need a 2 button similar shape key or a flip type 2 or 3 button key. I guess it is down to the key frequency but i need some help on this one. If it helps my car has the front and rear domes in the roof as mentioned in some of the key programming posts. cheers

Hey gregers, i live in the colchester area. Thanks for the offer, another keyfob would be great. I do have a two button type that i purchased for a fiver on ebay but as i said i am unsure if this is the correct type for my car so am reluctant to get it cut and coded untill i know. Thanks

this was the code of my old mk2 with auy.ford galaxy.

dont know if that engine code is generic for the fob on all of these cars.

but it may be different as yours is a sharan??

Thanks for the research. Looking on google this is the same 2 button curved type key i purchased from ebay. I will try programming it using the advice in the faq when i get a chance. Cheers gregers
