carrera 0 Report post Posted March 12, 2006 I just bought a E30, it only comes with one key. I went to a keycutter today but the guy told me that I need to go to BMW to get one cut. Is it true? unlike the modern one, it is just a simple key without any chips . Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

OLLIE 26 Report post Posted March 12, 2006 if it doesn't have any chips in it then as long as you can find the right blank then anyone can make a copy of your key. so no it's not true, unless bmw is the only place that has blanks for their keys, which would be fairly typical of them Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
