    Hi Kelly, do you have roadside assistance with your insurance cover? they might be able to help?

    ring around and find an opel garage open today, they will be able to get you the key number and security code for your car, there will be a charge usually about €20 they get charged for getting codes of cars they didnt sell... Just check first that the codes arent in the glove box if you have any of the origional books of the car.. most good lock places can programme car keys now

    Try resync'ing the spare key.

    The procedure above is for the main key but according to this guy it worked for his spare.

    rang around yesterday looking to get code but they said i have to ring on monday:( i tried unlocking it as in the descriptions but it didnt work:(

    the spare key i have works. It unlocks the car and turns on all the electrics just doesnt start the car. Does anyone know is it just a case of bringing the key to an opel dealer and them putting the code in? doe sanyone have any idea as to how much it would cost in total if i already have the spare key?
