Losing your car key is about as fun as stepping on a LEGO in the dark, but fear not. You’ll likely need a replacement key or a full reprogramming, depending on your car's age and tech. New car keys with transponders can set you back anywhere from $150 to $500 AUD, especially if dealer programming is involved. Used keys might be found cheaper on Tradingpost or CarShowroom, but beware of compatibility issues. For older cars, a locksmith can cut a basic key for under $50, but modern fobs require fancy gear. Always have your vehicle identification number (VIN) handy—it’s the golden ticket for key replacement. Lastly, consider ordering a spare key now before you lose the next one.
