My Ride: My Bimmer's info is in my sig, so I'll tell you about my garage toy. It's a 1997 Porsche Boxster. The car is black on black and I have replaced every single thing on the car (interior, exterior, drivetrain, suspension) except for the sheet metal and the convertible top (both of which will be next I guess). I love my Pcar more than any other car I have ever owned and will probably keep it for the rest of my life. Porsche. There is no substitute.

I do not believe you can reprogram a key head without a barcode tag that comes with it that dealer uses to program it to your particular car. Call your dealer to ensure you don't throw away good money after bad by buying a key you can't get reprogrammed.

I assume you've changed the battery in it, right?

Just replace the battery. Look in your manual for instructions and what size battery to buy. No big deal.
