The dealer charged me about $220 for a new key last year. I always thought this was a dealer only part.

BMW Dealer charged me $200 dollars for a new key. They programmed it right on the spot free of charge... least they can do for spending that much money on a new key.

don't feel so bad for $200 for key. VW wants $280!!!!! You can at least program a BMW key yourself, I did when I changed a battery (XOutpost rocks!!!) in mine. You can not program a VW key either. I was amazed that BMW and Merc are 200 to 220 and VW Jetta 280 plus labor.

I key is something I would go to the stealership for though.
I was about to say the same thing about getting ANYTHING in NY
