Renault Megane 2004 - Renault Megane key card problem - IceManUK

Hi Guys,
My key card has stopped working and I was wandering if you know anyone decent apart from the dealer that can provide a replacement key card? I'm in South Wales, close to Newport and I have a Megane 04 plate.
Thanks for your help

Of course you can only get unprogrammed cards on ebay - the cards have to be individually coded to the ECU in YOUR car, and that can only be done whilst physically next to the car.

You buy a blank card, and then get it programmed by someone local to you.
