hey guys

long story short, my mum lost my keys to my corolla last week and now we turned the house over 3 times and still havent been able to find it..

i called Toyota today and they wanted $1900 for a new ECU and 2 keys.. parts only!!!

just wanted to see if i had any other cheaper options..

any help would be great..

cheers wil

Call a locksmith, they can reset the ECU and cut a key from the lock. It will cost you half of what Toyota quoted you and the Locksmith can come to you an do the job.

No luck retracing her steps?

If you do end up needing a new key cut, make sure you get a set of spare keys cut too, so you won't have to go through this problem again.

How did you go with this?

after almost 3 weeks we finally found the keys.. it was under the microwave!!!

but just for future ref,, i called a few auto locksmith and they will charge anything between $550-$850 for 2 keys.. they come to you and cut it on the spot..

thanks for the input guys..

That's a pretty good price, much quicker than having to go through Toyota too. There are some Toyota dealers though that would of got the same Locksmith to do the job and charge you the difference.
