  1. I gave it a go at re-programming it and I get "Unidentified remote control key" at the moment 😞
  2. Thanks both of you for your help! I will give re-programming a go and then I guess it will either be a matter of contacting the seller or purchasing another key from BMW which will cost me an arm and a leg 😅

  4. Hello, this is a really silly question but I recently purchased a BMW 1 Series which came with two keyfobs. The original key is working fine, but the spare didn't have a working battery after I replaced the battery it still isn't working. I think decided to open up both keyfobs and compare the physical keys and the pattern on the two keys is different, and the spare keyfob physical key doesn't unlock the car. Does anyone know what could have happened here, was the spare key lost by the owner and he purchased another one?
