  1. I have already asked. They offered me higher price. Much higher for just a non remote one. Tho its just bit more for the remote one. Dont actually know why.
  2. I got a locksmith contact. He can do for $20. Yes please send it to me. I won't be travelling to Adelaide on my car. I just did a trip with it Syd-Melb 4pm-4am and it was a freaking freaking nightmare. Everone sped in nsw jurisdiction, upto 140. I couldn't but follow bc people kept changing lane bc of me doing 110. But when coming to vic I saw cameras and flash lights, so I was cruising at 110, but still got flashed at. Im waiting to see what will happen. And kangaroo head tail flesh and blood, ****, just too much for a 22 yo. I went self washing the car at 4am bc Im sick of blood. Lol
  3. Cool. I will get non remote one. Where are you mr2? Any locksmith can do the cutting job right? Please send me intruction how to code the key in when I buy it. Thanks
  4. Absolutely. It has a G stamp. I didn't know how the G really works but now I do. Lol. Thanks for the illumination. Lol. Yeh the other day a locksmith even asked me what the G was and what it did when he found out his stuff can't duplicate the key. I just replied it just meant a more secured way against breaking into the system. He looked at me very doubtful and sorry. Lol. Believe me I'm not at all fascinated by this G. People can still steal your vehicle by few other ways right. Even that if you park in the wrong place or get hated by someone your car can still get key scratched or a flat tyre no matter of the G or H key. Lol. It is the matter how you keep it well. More security makes the car more expensive making it more tempting to be stolen making people more advanced in their thievery profession. Excuse me but this technology seems to me at the moment is to bring more income to dealers. It is the same thing goes for computer virus and anti virus software. Never ending money and time wasting journey.
  5. You can do it that way, or... I can tell you how to to it on board with your existing master key. No point in buying the Chinese ripoff version of Techstream. Cost for a non remote key if going genuine is around $40 for the key, get it cut to code will be another $30.. programming it in yourself, free.. If you don't have a master key... it gets pricy and Techstream isn't going to help. Uwow you are such a master Mr2. Really, can we bypass it without Techstream for 2013 model. Any idea if an Asian remote key with the same frequency will work? Someone told me it has the same frequency, 433.92mhz, but the chipboard looks really different. Can I get the genuine transponder key from you Mister? $40 is extremely good compared to 220$ from dealer. I also get this 40$ price from Asia. They also quote me $100 for a blank remote integrated one, but Im not sure if it will work. Yes, I still want a remote key for the reason that we all know technology fails times. My only remote key will probably die in 3-5 years time right. Even if I sell the car, it's always better that way. But if it's so hard to get a cheap one then forget it. Again, I'm losing hope on Australian locksmiths. Been to a few, they sticked it into their whatever machine and shook their head "No can't do it". It's not that hard to get updated with tech is it? Even I can find out with google.
  6. I just got some information. It's actually simple. Buy a toyota techstream with installation disc. Plug into the car and connect with laptop on the other end. Choose an option on the software. Put in the already cut key and do whatever next. Total cost for a nonremote key is about 30$. Not sure of remote one. Some said one made in Thailand would work
  7. Hi Kanmuri I would love to buy a used one if available and change the blade portion but yours is a keyless start. Mine needs a key.
  8. I don't like its front head. Its like a sick Audi. Just not harmonious any more
  9. Yes tranny oil and filter are really expensive. But you can get it done cheaper at a LOCAL acquainted garage. My garage guy just took $40 for service including engine oil but tranny.
  10. As an inexperienced buyer I bought the car from Pickles with only one remote key. I only found out this when all transactions have done. The car is in exceptionally good condition, so I'm not that upset, but it didn't come with a really good price. I asked Toyota, they told me it will cost 350 for the key, cutting and programming. They also said the spare key won't start the car, which I totally don't buy in. Yes it won't open glove box and boot but what the key is for if it won't start the car. What I think is if I have the master key, which I do, I can register in the spare key to the car computer, then it should be programmed. The spare key costs $65. Plus cutting and transponder programming I think, they won't do anything for free there (I got my service there, it was excellent, but costly, no parts were replaced and it costs 300 for the service and oil and TOOLS and SUNDRIES KITS. 300 is fine, but given it is just the basic scheduled service, it is a bit much for me, I will come to other place next time) My question is whether exactly looking remote key from ebay sellers in the US (with G stamp) can work on my car. I'm worried about the frequency. Has anyone have experience of this? I can't find the frequency of my remote. Anyone has this figure by any chance? The sellers' one in US is 314.4 Mhz though. Please help me out. 350 for a key is too much. I am not going to work for a few days to buy a key. There are thousands other things of the car too. All answers are much appreciated. Thanks.
