Did the dealer charge you for the programming and was it a blank key all in one (same as the original)or you had to get a key separate with a separate the auto button type?

I had the same problem when I bought mine from Western Plains Auto Dubbo (Mitsu dealers) in July and they charged me around $90.00 for a blank with remote head then gave me an order number to take to the locksmith to cut it, once that was done I took the key & the ute back to them & they programed it for me, all up $90.00 , about 5km & 1/2 hour running around, so all in all a good deal I thought.

Upcoming trip so need to get another made, locksmith's reckon they can cut a Key to open the doors but can't program the transponder to deactivate the immobiliser. Has anyone had one replaced from Mitsubishi..... if so how much did it set you back?? Cheers.

Bugger, I had a plan to get a key cut as an emergency key without the electrics so it wouldn't get damaged and then tie it under the vehicle somewhere as a "just in case". So just to clarify, this wouldn't work with the immobiliser? So what happens if you are outback and the batteries fail on your key?

Dont need to worry bout getting the blank key wet and dont need to worry about someone thinking to check the toe of my shoes then flogging the car! Cant start the car with it but dont need to in this situation.
