    S60R flip key

    my flip key has been broken since I bought the car seems like the spring has gone & the push button is broke,

    Found this on eBay..... http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/1906664812...84.m1423.l2649

    I understand I will have to put my transponder chip in but just wondering if a normal key cutting place can cut this sort of key?

    Hi i did try to get a 2nd key cut but the ones i tried could not do it,
    but i would just swap over the latch bits.
    Have you been to Volvo parts as the key is sold in 3 bits ,1 blade, 2 blade holder with chip ,3 remote bit with the buttons worth a look in.

    i dont think the volvo keys can be cut....... i took mine into my local Timpsons key cutters, after putting it into his machine the key came up as 'code locked' so there was nothing they could do with it.
