| 08 Sport Supercharged V8 AJ 4.2 Doors LOCKED Has no FOB/Key | |
Hey all,
New to this RR club. I bought an abandoned 08 Sport at auction. It has not key.
I just wanted to understand the process as I’ve getting a lot of disparate info so your input would be helpful.
I understand that i have to:
1. get a key from a LandRover Dealer
2. Take the key and the car to the dealer to get it programmed
3. Only after that will i be able to open the doors and attempt to start/turn over the vehicle.
Some things i am confused about:
1. With the new key will there be a ‘smart key’ included that allows manually unlocking of driver side door?
2. One dealer suggested that since the car has been sitting so long that i will need to buy a ‘BCM unit’ along with the key in order to start the vehicle
3. Is there anything else i will need other than a ‘programmed key’ to start the process of opening and then attempting to start the vehicle?
As i stated i am new to the RR club and took a chance buying a abandoned RR sport at an auction. The price was decent and i recognize that I’ve hit a jackpot or opening the door to a nightmare, lol.
Any tips, suggestions (even outside of the key issue) are welcome.
Thanks in advance.
