1998 Volkswagen Passat Remote Flip Key Replacement - Fast, Affordable & Professional
She was leaving the bar district in Coronado after her bartending shift and her bag was gone. Someone grabbed it while she was closing out tabs. Keys, wallet, phone, everything. She borrowed a coworker's phone and called the police first, then her roommate, then me.
Her 1998 Volkswagen Passat was in the lot with zero keys. The dealer told her roommate they could order a key but 3 to 5 business days, plus a tow, plus rekeying. Combined estimate was over $700.
I got there that night. All-keys-lost after a theft is a different job than making a spare. I don't just add a new key. I wipe the entire key memory so the stolen key can't start the engine even if the thief walks up and tries it. I used my IM608 to access the immobilizer, erase all stored key data, and program two new keys from scratch. Her Remote Flip Key, FCC ID NBG8137T, was a 4-button smart fob. I decoded the lock with my Lishi, cut the emergency blade, and had both fobs working before her ride showed up.
She drove home that night with two fresh keys. Total was $179 for both. Dealer estimated $376 plus a tow and a multi-day wait. The stolen key is completely erased from the system.
