Got Robbed! POS now has my DL and key
Felt like an idiot just handing him my wallet and keys, but at the same time, I like not being stabbed. The thought that some low life trash has my key and my address makes me paranoid about my cayenne sitting on the driveway. I'm using my spare key for now and parking my car in my garage.
Still, I would like to get the whole "key module" (whats the proper word?) replaced so my cayenne will not recognize the old set of keys. What is the proper way to do this? Get the dealer to change the key codes and reprogram two new keys? What's the cost I'm going to be looking at?

That sucks! I got stuff stolen out of mine a few weeks back when it was sitting in my driveway. Now I have cameras and lights everywhere lol. Where you in your car when it happened or in a dark alley?

Good to be alive. Go to the dealer with your registration and DL to start the key ordering process and then wait to get your new and old keys and car reprogrammed. The key is over a couple hundred and piwis work is more. Your stolen key will not work afterwards.

Thats it? just buy another set of keys and have the dealer program it?
Doesn't sound too bad of a hassle.
Since I have the spare key, would I be able to just keep this one and buy another one to program, deleting the stolen one from the car's key registry, or do they come from the factory as a set so I'll have to buy two keys from Sunset?

You will need to show proof of ownership to Sunset or?? the key is cut in Atlanta from your VIN and shipped to you in about a week.
Not all online dealers do keys Sunset accepted a copy of the current registration.
Looks like the raised the price a bit.

Thanks for the link! I'm thinking about ordering one since you said its precut and programmed from my VIN, then just go to the dealer and pay for the labor to have them delete the stolen key, does that sound about right?

Yes - that's what you'd do - but you have to take ALL your keys that you ever want to use with the car to the dealer and have them enter them into the immobilizer memory. First, they erase the memory, then they add each key to the immobilizer. The stolen key is deleted when they erase the immobilizer memory. You can ONLY add keys to the memory that are physically present when the memory is being programmed.

I get the feeling you're not really paying attention to what people are telling you.
