I dont think so. TCM needs to access Nissan JP database to retrieve your codes.

Try to talk to your SE to see if he/she has contacts internally and whether special discounted rates can be accorded to you.

you can't save on that $200.  better do it quick, or else the person who found your key will have full access to your car until TCM reprogram your new i-key. 

or you can pay TCM a reprogram fee to de-activate the old i-key & keep your spare manual key.

HI sad

No need to change whole set.
So if you lost any of your keys, you can either choose to replace with new I-key, manual key or just reprogram to take away the code of the lost key.

I-key + reprogram fee = $202.
Manual key + reprogram fee = $156.
Reprogram fee is abt $60 if I'm not wrong.

Sorry if I side tracked. Does the I-Key come with warranty? Anyone of you has managed to ask TCM for one to one exchange or repair of defective I-Key?

wonder if anybody who found one of the i-key can sell back to me so that i can reprogram at a cheaper price...sigh....economy so bad alraedy still need to pay 200 for keys when it could just cost 20-50 to make a new pair...sigh sigh sigh

A possible way to cut cost if you don't mind doing without the convenience of the i-key is to use the manual keys provided.

You should have 2. One of the manual keys is in the i-key itself.

I think you should seriously consider doing the re-program coz there could be a joker out there walking around with yr i-key...

i damaged my spare manual key (the one separated from the transponder) recently, does any bro/sis know where can make a duplicate based on the manual key inside the transponder?

called a few places and was quoted $120, one even quoted $180 saying there's some microchip inside that makes you able to start the engine.

true or not ah? looks just like a normal key to me leh
