HELP! dropped keys and need a replacement!

Yesterday i dropped my keys and i have no idea where they are. That was the only key that i have that will start the car. The other key i have is the valet key that will open it but not start it up. If anyone can give some advice on the best way to get a replacement that would be great! Its a 2006 V8V

Unfortunately, aston keys are coded to your specific car because they have an internal chip inside.

The cheapest thing you can do is possibly get your valet key coded to your car by the dealer. That's assuming it has a chip inside it.

Your other options are to order a key ordered per your vin number from aston Martin bits. I received mine after a week and it unlocked the doors only, similar to your valet key.

I had it programmed at the dealer so it started my car once put in the ignition.

Bottom line: you have to go to the dealer at some point.

You need 2 keys to program, dealer visit required. You have to have the car towed in.

Be prepared to spend big bucks on a set of keys. Just warning you now as I about fell out of my chair when I asked for a quote.
