Clio 172
Hi I just got my 172 last week and i got two keys with it, one of the keys didnt work when i got it told it had a dead battery. turns out when opening it un just the little button on the bored has broke off , if held in place and pressed the little red light works and opens the car.
But my major problem is the other key also opens the car , but only the broken key can start the car , when i put in the fully functional key in the ignition the red light in the dash keeps flashing , and i have to use the broken key to start it.
I am assuming then that only one of my keys is coded to my car ignition! From factory did the cars come with a key that was not coded , can they loose there coding and can they be re-coded? and also can the code be read from the key fob at all ? so I if i do get a new one i can make sure its coded to the same code as the key that starts my car?

im going get my self down to a renault dealership once my pay cheque comes in . but will keep it in mind what you have said new key could well be the way forwards !
