New keys, ecu, uch...?

[CoryColeWilkins]

Right guys, I've just bought a rb 182. It has air con, cruise, traction etc.. And I love it! It's my third RS, first 182.

Basically, I want keys to it that no previous owner has ever had.
I'm really not looking to get into why I want to do this, it's just something I feel needs to be done. It wasn't the best sale and I only have one key. It's just something that will put my mind to rest and keep me calm every time I hear a sporty car start up outside.

So yeah.. Back to it :smile:
What do I need all together?

I've found this on eBay: 291525749824
Is that any good to me?

Thanks in advance, Cory.

you just need ignition barrel, door lock and key blade.

 

[CoryColeWilkins]

@bloke what about the immobiliser?

If you want two keys, best to get key, UCH and ECU.

If you only want one, then blade, barrel and door lock is all that's required. But the old owner could potentially still open the car if they have a key.

For complete security from old owner, you'll need:
Key(s), ECU, UCH, Door Barrel, Ignition barrel. All from the same car.

@Budgie
Thanks for that info.
When say same car, do you mean same spec?

As in all parts that have been removed from the same particular vehicle.

Find someone breaking a 182 is your best bet. @Kelv @Llewellyn

no door barrel, if you care

no door barrel, if you care

Otherwise, it will work fine?

if you only want to change the key then no need to change ecu, uch etc.
to be honest it's a lot to do if you're just being a bit paranoid...what if the person you get the bits from has a spare key, keeps a note of your address and then comes and pinches the car:wink:

I appreciate where you are coming from. But its not just a case of being paranoid, prevention is better than a cure.
The way I look at it is, I have one key. One day, I might lose that and need the spare. It will cost me far less to change the above required than it would to call a locksmith out on an emergency call.

I want no way of any previous owner entering or starting my car.

I don't have post sent to my address as I work all day. I collect my post from somebody .

What's making you so suspicious of the previous owner?

Buying a car without the spare key is just something I wouldn't usually do. I don't like the idea of somebody else having a key to my car and not even having a spare myself.
