My moan about them is . . .

WHY THE HELL DO THE KEYS DETACH! ?

the key comes off the keyfob thing, if u understand

i crapped my self twice now because it has come off . . . one time it come off and i thought i lost it but it was on my seat in my car ( must hav fell off the key )

and the second time the keyfob wasnt working so i locked it manually (in the keyhole )

and i went into my house for about an hour and then went back out and ARGHHH WHERES MY KEY !!! it was luckily still stuck in the keyhole of my car !!!

y the hell do they do this ?

one word:

areldite

sounds abit ghey tbh! but thinking about it my dads merc key did this also! but it never just fell off! you had to unclip it! too bad if it came off inside the lock barrel

just realised this is jordan lol ??

remember at summer madness when my key disapeard thought i was gonna be stuck there like u

yep its me!

arr i though you had snapped it in the lock! never realised it just fell off! are they supposed to do this then? bit dangerous if they are! could fall off anywhere

i knew it did it but yours shouldnt be so loose that you lose the key! thats bad!

did anyone ever get a spare key which is just the shape of the actual key and then the 2 fobs? the salesman said it is a back up if you lose the key?

Yep, that sounds like the master key, usually needed if you have to have a new key made up. Looks like a bit of black plastic in the shape of your key with a code on it or on a tag on the same keyring? I've got one

I prob sounded really thick and all excited about having a master key but he told me to keep it on me so if I am out I have a back up handy..... what an idiot to tell me to carry around the master key!
