Hey guys, I couldn't get my car started and I stupidly put in the metal part of the key instead of the remote part into the manual started. The metal key is now stuck :-\. Any ideas on how to get it out?

 

"manual started"???? What is that? Do you mean the fob vag? The fob vag likes the fat fob in there not the skinny metal key...
Wiggle it out carefully. Use a flashlight to see what you're doing.

 

Manual start? I know we have a key for the drivers keyhole and the FOB vagina, but where's the key hole to start it?

 

I hope you aren't the tech at the dealer working on mine. Both of my intelligent keys got erased and stranded me. What a nightmare.

 

Yes the fob hole, sorry. I stuck the metal key instead of the FOB inside the FOB hole and it is now stuck. I tried pulling it out but it doesn't seem to want to come out. I don't want to damage the compartment either.

 

but some oil brake into the key hole ,
then rapidly right & left with some pulling should do the trick

 

Say what? Do people read their posts before posting??
Did you mean 'spray some oil into the keyhole'? If so, +1.

 

The only reason for separating the metal key from the FOB is to lock the glove compartment to prevent access to the trunk when leaving the car with a valet.

There is no reason to ever take the FOB out of your pocket because as soon as you are near your car you can just press the button on the door handle or the trunk button and you are granted access.
Just get into the vehicle and press the start button. In my case the clutch pedal must be pressed to the floor prior to pressing the start button.

You are under warranty so just visit the dealer and let them have a look at what you did before you damage something.

Good luck

yes spray it , you got the idea thats what matter in the end

 

What?

Why would you lock the glove box to prevent access to the trunk when there's a trunk button on the FOB that you need to give the valet to drive your car?

 

A switch inside the glove compartment disables the fob trunk release and dash trunk release.

 

I did not know that.

Then say what you mean, don't just type random words in the hope that people will gracefully decode them.

 

i am not that good in english lexi ,

ok am sorry it came out wrong

 

lol at this whole thread. DO NOT PUT OIL in your key fob port/hole/vag! That is a terrible idea.
