Update: In a moment of poor judgment I dropped $800 on the BMW multi tool. This is the safest programmer for our cars. This will allow me to program keys via OBD2 in 10 minutes. My CA key arrived today it has a different chip, PCF7953. Looks like my CA key will be on hold for a bit longer. I went to a locksmith to get a quote on how much it would be to get a new fob if I didn't have a keylab in my basement and he said he couldn't do it. I wanted to also get my metal key cut but he said it was $35. I am not paying a BMW tax so I walked out. I am going to call around to see if someone will do it at the normal $5-$10 rate.


Keys will be made by the end of the week.
