Last Year 

[iagree]

Last Year 

I know.
But Richua get it at S$156, it is later than your 'last year'.
So, how come now is cheaper mah?

[richua]

Dear all bros, my $156 is only for the spare key. It is not the intelligent key.. 

Should have ask how much more for the i-key. if really still around $200, would have gone for it.

The best is, i requested the spare key on Tuesday, was told to wait for 1-2 weeks, but yesterday received a call saying the key is ready. After only 1 day... They say Nissan Japan responded immediately with the code for the key.

oh, richua,

that's for spare key ah? i tot is ikey coz this thread is talking abt i-key. haha
sorry for misunderstanding.

if $156 for spare key, that is ex lah. since u already got 2 keys when you bot the car. i.e. 1 ikey, 2 spare keys (because 1 key is in the ikey itself!)

shld go for ikey, best man. coz ikey come with backup 'key' aso.

[richua]

but the spare key used by my father lah. Traditional people dunno how to use intelligent/high tech stuffs deh....

sorry for digging out this old thread, juz to ask bros here to do the i-key at TCM, can I just call them, then go collect when it is ready or need to go down pay first?

Need to do new i-key coz my wife, after driving my car yesterday, left the i-key in her jeans to wash in the washing machine. This morning I tried, cannot work liao
And to think my wife always against me poisoning my car, but 1 i-key replacement oledi can fix up several cheap poisons.

You need to call them and give them your key quote (the number tag that comes with your key).

Call Toa Payoh service center, they have the stock for the key.  Actually the lead time depends on when they receive the key code from Japan. 
I ordered mine when I went for 1k servicing.  They receive the key code before finished servicing, so they can program the new ikey immediately.

[dsrio]

its amazing but after  I change my ikey battery, it works 
40 minutes of washing in the washing machine and it still works, really durable man

for info, I did called TC tpy and was quoted $270 for a replacement

[clarence]

My SE quoted me $200 when I asked for an additional i-key before I took delivery of my car.

The price seems to vary.

[david1881]

Wow durable man!   
I got mine for $188+7% GST = $201.16

[iwilly]

think it cheaper when u buy everything together rather than serparately

[LatioR]

Hmm $170... still expensive wonder why the didnt give two keys, only one... i thought most car will give two set of similar keys

Anyway sidetrack, how do you take apart the keyless system to install batt? Just piak it apart?

hi detach8, u may refer to the thread "Knowledge Sharing: How to Change your I-key Battery" by NSman on how to replace the batt . Just need to force it open by small "-" screw driver. Tried b4, and bought the batt at less than $2 but yet to replace as the old batt still can be use.
