Key Replacement - Save vs Dealer in San Diego

2006 GMC Savana MECHANICAL-KEY Replacement - Fast, Affordable & Professional

A retired firefighter in El Cajon had just picked up a used 2006 GMC Savana from a credit union auto sale. Good truck, fair price, one problem: it came with one key. The credit union told him to get a spare on his own. He figured it would be quick.

He called the GMC dealer and they wanted $200 for a spare MECHANICAL-KEY. He'd been buying trucks for 30 years and couldn't believe what keys cost now. He found EZ Car Keyz online and asked me straight up if the dealer price was normal. I told him it was, but I do the same job for around $95.

I met him at the credit union lot before he even drove the truck home. His key uses FCC ID , which tells me exactly what remote frequency, button count, and security chip the vehicle expects. I matched the blank, cut the blade on my machine, and used my VVDI2 to clone the transponder data from his existing key onto a fresh blank so the truck accepted it without a full reprogram.

His spare works identical to the dealer key. Lock, unlock, start, all 3 buttons. He drove home with two working keys, and that second key means if one ever goes missing, the next replacement is a simple add-a-key instead of all-keys-lost, which saves even more down the road.
