Hi guys,
I have a 2009 Malibu with 8,000 miles, and my wife lost her key and remote control. I bought a key and remote from Transponder Island Inc. After cutting the key I had no problem to program her key with my spare key.
BUT for the remote control, the dealer wants $59 to program it using my remote control (for which I paid $39 to Transponder Island Inc.).
Mind you, it's only for programming it, as the control is mine and I still have the other original remote.
Is there a way I can do it myself? Why is the dealer charging so much just for programming?
Thank you in advance for any help.
