Re: Care Key

Dealer is advising that, "yes, we can reprogramme the orange key, £95 please". I've asked why other manufacturers can supply two full keys at point of sale. Ask them to read TJ35978 and get it booked in under warranty. It should be done free of charge. Well it is clear the dealer isn't go...

Aah, makes sense - hope you get it sorted out 👍🏻 What functions, out of interest, are you missing with the orange key ? Memory funtions, you can't add the orange key to a driver profile, so the seat., mirr...
