Mechanical Key

BillMorgan · 06-20-2005, 10:05 AM

Car delivered last Tuesday. Spent some time reading the Owner's Manual. It refers to a 'mechanical key' when discussing various things about the smart entry system. Dealer gave me two copies of the remote key fob, but no mechanical key. Does he owe me one? Thanks.

They're built into the fob. There's a little slide lever on the top of the fob. Slide the lever and pull on the ring, and out comes the key.

Hey, just tried it. That's cool. That would have been nice for the dealer to have shown me in his 5 minute turnover. Thanks a bunch.

I used to live in Portland, Oregon. Oh I do miss how in the NorthWest an 81 degree day with 65% humidity could be considered a heat wave. But then again, I don't miss the winters there one bit.
