I am ordering another key for my Pluriel. I am told it has to be imported from France and will take approximately three weeks. Furthermore, after paying just under $300 for it, I then have to front with the car and all the other keys to a service centre (along with the security card) and pay to have them all programmed to the car.
I understand the programming bit, but most cars can have their keys programmed by following a certain keystroke sequence. A Falcon, for example, the ignition is switched on and off a few times then the doors locked & unlocked. After this, each keypad button is pressed and the car remembers the code.
Two questions:

Two questions:
- Does anybody know if the C3 keys are user-programmable... and how?
- What experiences have others had with getting keys cut? Do they really need to come from France?
