Hi new here
I am buying a 2000 BMW 740IL There is only one key and I need to get a 2nd plus another spare. Do the keys have to come from a dealership? I know the remote entry based key would have to come from a dealer. My question is, can I have a locksmith cut a plain key for a spare? Or is there a transponder within the key and ignition? This is a sweet car, and the only thing missing is the 2nd key! |

Re: BMW 740 Keys
The only way you will get a key that can start the car is to order it from a dealer - they actually have to order it from BMWNA. A locksmith might be able to cut you a key to unlock the car but thats about it.

It doesn't start the car, but it does unlock the door atleast.

Re: BMW 740 Keys
Bet that 20 bucks seems real expensive now.

No, not really, atleast I can get in the car if I lock my keys out. A locksmith service call is more than $20.00 ya know.
