New member and currently really annoyed with M-B.
Just read NeilA's post and must ask my own question.
My wife's key failed 6 months ago in her M-B and new one cost her about £200. I have just been to stealership this morning with my failed key - new one about £210. However, they have just told me as my SLK is 6 years old I will need a different model of key which means cutting a new blade (insert). The total quoted was £269 odd. I was furious - £60-£70 to cut a piece of metal.
I am waiting for their return call as I want to know if I can have a new key without the blade (after all I have 2 already) but my question for television is - if I buy a key from ebay - will it be obvious what key I need to buy before I send it to you? I have a 2007 SLK 350?
