So i presume it's a normal key, not a contactless?

Hi redrobbo,

I lost one of my contactless keys a few months ago. The insurance agreed to pay £300 towards my bill only if I change the whole lock with completely new keys, and provide a receipt to them.

I used Car Keys Solutions. To have new lock and two new keys, it cost me £430, with them coming to my location. It might be cheaper if you go to their location.

They were good to me. They were fast and offered me a great service.

In comparison, Toyota was charging me double the price.

I would advise getting second key that has all the function of the key you have! There are plenty of reasons why, and I have experienced some of them. My Avensis came with 3 keys - 2 with the remote buttons, plus the valet key. Same with my previous Toyota 2 + 1. If the remote operation is not working properly, a decent locksmith could find out why and get all the keys working properly.

It would be good to also have the remote done, as suggested above.

You can go to any local place that does this, i saw Timpsons and Halfords being mentioned most often in similar topics
