I RECENTLY lost my only set of car keys for my 2002 model Toyota Prado. I tried getting quotes from various locksmiths only to find I needed to go direct to Toyota, which wanted to replace the control module and supply new keys at a cost of $2200. A specialist locksmith quoted $1200, because new cars have transponder keys. Does this sound correct?
CONTINUE to search for your keys because the news isn't good. A Toyota spokesman confirmed that it does cost $2200 to replace the keys. He wouldn't comment on the quality or cost of non-genuine replacements. The keys do have a transponder, not like the keys of old.
