new owner - keys

[janz]

Hi, just got our first merc, an A170.

Have a slight issue in that the previous owner supplied both electronic key fobs but I have since found out that they should have emergency keys in these fobs which they dont!
Any way of getting new ones cut without an original ?

Hi and welcome. You could try asking at an MB dealer.
The emergency key slides into the main key and is where the key attaches to a keyring.

Does it have a hole for the key ring? If so, the emergency keys are within - just a bit difficult to see it.

no place to hook on a keyring thats how I discovered no key inside

Your only option will probably be a dealer then unless the previous owner can find them. You'll need the V5 and some ID.

 

[janz]

any idea of cost?

 

[LostKiwi]

Sorry no idea.

thanks for help - will push seller to have a look for them

Welcome, and as you say- very remiss of the previous owners
