Can anyone tell me if they have a coded key & transponder? I have only one key & its the rubber sealed unit so can't take it apart. I'm having an alarm immobiliser fitted next week & would like a spare key with my spare fob.
Cheers.

Yep, coded with a transponder ring in the steering column.

Why have an alarm/immobiliser fitted when the car already has one?

As I have no remote central locking fob & the Volvo alarm has been disconnected. An old school mate is fitting a total closure for me mates rates. Cheers.

Aah, I see.

Hope your mate knows what he's doing, those things can spit their dummy when you start messing with the immobiliser.

You`ll need the steering and ideally the door lock with it.I have it with 2 keys.

Why not get a Volvo remote fob and code it to the car.

Then reconnect the volvo system.

Kingsford I'll message you in a minute, I need some bits off you anyway. I've had diagnostics ran on the car today.
Cheers for the advice, I think I'll go down the route of a new lock set. Cheers fellas.

Don't forget to tell the insurance co as well,then they will ask for the Certificate of fitting Buy a registered fitter.
If the factory one has been removed/not working.
