I have a 2006 with the push button start. I need an extra key and wanted to know if you can use a pre-used key fob from another car, with reprograming ofcourse. Just Want to know what is the procedure or should I just buy a new one.

Go read the other thread on this topic.

My research, personal experience, and talking to BMW SA's will tell you to get a new one. Actually, it doesn't necessary have to be new (for the chip part), as long as it's blank.
