What do the three capital letters on the key blade mean?

Featured Replies

Hi all, can anyone give me any guidance as to what the three letters on the key blade are used for?

Many Thanks

Dan

Would a mod re-word the title for me, got it a little backwards there :(

is the letters.FAB? its just the make of the key. same letters been used on all keys i've had even on my estelle.

all mine have had HAA on them

I have noticed that my ignition barrel has FAB on it.

Mine has FAB; the wife's has FAA - never even thought about it!

(Oh, and I've sorted the title!)

all mine have had HAA on them

I'm not sure what's worse Dan; that you noticed what they all were or that you can remember! B)

Just for info - mines HAA as well but I certainly can't remember what my other VAG cars keys were.....

Mine has FAB on it. But the gf's seat has different letters on. I was wondering if you could get hold of a new barrell thats already set up for the key the car has. As I managed to break the rod off of the back of the lock whilst replacing her window regulator. Many thanks for the rewording ap0gee. Also to the rest of the comments above.

My Fabia vRS has FAB on it, but my Audi TT has HAA..........................

Nothing, according to Gerry Anderson, and since he created Thunderbirds, he should know!

Im guessing you cant buy a lock to already to suit the car with this lettering?

You can buy a lock from skoda using your V5, proof of identity etc which comes though to suit the rest of the locks on the car..

They keep your key pattern on their system :)

The only letter on a key that I know that has some meaning is a W. This means that the key has a variable code transponder.
