Master Key

[Steve CC]

Hi all.

Firstly, I'm a new member and would like to say hello.

I've recently bought a 2009 Tourer 1.8 Vmatic TR Nav. It is a great car but takes some getting used to after owning and driving a Galaxy Tdi since new for 13 years!

I aquired 2 keys with the car - a 3 button Infra red master and a grey valet - see pic. I now realise that it should have come with 2 masters. I need to get hold of another master but find there is some confusion regards the procedure. I'm sure that the main dealer could sort me out - at a cost! I've seen a tricky procedure to program the transponder but not sure about the infra red controls.

Any help greatly appreciated as I'm scatter brained at the best of times and I'm guessing that if (when) I lose the master I will be in big financial do-do.

Also - is there any way of getting into the car with the valet key without setting alarm off?

Many thanks

Steve
