I haven't got round to it yet, oops... It was a local VAG specialist, VWX Automotive near Hexham

I can live with that :- New Key £101.77+vat Online key coding £52.50+vat

Mine's just a normal key, probably be more expensive! 😥😂

Sounds like an interesting trip! 😲 I'm just waiting to hear back from my local VAG specialist, they say that they can probably do it.

Thank you, I was hoping it wouldn't be dealer only, I'll see where my nearest one is and give them a ring. 👍

Any recommendations for getting a spare key cut and programmed please? Been meaning to do it for ages, but you know how it is! 😂 I'm in the North East, thanks in advance.

Thanks for the reply, but I'm not looking at changing the wheels, I understand that higher profile tyres and steel wheels will be much stronger, but they'll also generally look awful, even with trims! I was just checking on my options, hopefully it will be OK as it is, but I'm going to see if I can get it checked over.

They're 225/45/17, just standard wheels and tyres that came with the car. I'm going to try and have a look at the inside of the rim opposite the weights tomorrow in the daylight, see if there's any noticeable damage. 👍

Car passed its MOT this morning with flying colours, save for the one advisory, is this something I should be worried about? They said it was fine, but just noticed it whilst they had it up in the air turning the wheels. Car drives fine, probably a bloody pothole at some point in time! 🤬🤣

Been trying to remove the silver front grill surround to fit a new black one, but can't get it to budge! 🤬 All the info I can find says you just need to use a long flat head screwdriver to push the tabs out either side, but they don't release when I try, any suggestions please? Trying my best not to damage anything...
