Hello-I would like to pick up a spare key/fob as my car came with only one key. How much are the keys at the MB dealer? Are there any aftermarket/used options for a keyless remote? Thanks

I think I paid about 280 for a new key,it took about one hour for it to program itself tho(litteraly)I got stuck in the parking lot waiting for the car to sync the key.

David Ross

Thanks for the reply. That's expensive!

ouch !

Mine was $340 w/ Keyless go

My stealer quoted me about $150 but that maybe a wholesale price.

I paid $195 for a key for my 05 C230 in 2008, i took one day to arrive, and was already programmed for the car.

Just went through this....They are $250 delivered. You go to the dealer with the car, they take your driver's license and the registration to make sure you own it, check the VIN, and order a key. If you need the whole assembly, you request the "blade" that opens the doors and locks the glovebox as you will not have it from your old key. The new assembly arrives in 3-4 days and they test it out and send you on your way.

BTW, ALL replacement keys are now the new chrome style which is a big plus.

yeah I got a chrome one also and with keyless go,I know it was over 250 and had a few other things done so I don't remember exactly what it was,Ill look for the slip.

If you leave your car there have them sync it,it takes sooo long for the car to program a keyless go key.

David Ross

That's horrible. I have Keyless Go also. I am presuming that the price included programming?

$300 w/ keyless go a couple weeks back!......but the new ones are nicer looking

I just paid $230 w/ tax and programming for keyless go. Be sure to have the car AND proof of ownership at the dealer when you go to order it - that is a security procedure MB has.

Haha, all this proof of ownership talk reminds me of "Gone in 60 secs"...

I got quoted 340 from the dealer

Yep it comes pre-programed and ready to go. It does not include lube for the rape though. Just a heads up

I posted this a long time ago but apparently they still have the chromed Smartkeys going for 195 at this Bay area dealership.

Do the keys also come with a cut emergency blade key?
