It's not. It's a high quality copy apparently sourced from the same if not similar automotive suppliers.

Any updates from MFNATIK or iczer34 ? I'm very interested in this and if we have another confirmed case, I will try to have this done locally.

Got my key today. Anyone have instructions on how to open the stock key? Got the new key open as it was pretty straight forward. Having issues with the stock key.

Get a rotary tool (Dremel) and a thin cutting wheel. Pop out the metal key. Make a small cut where the two pieces meet and then you can pry it be rest of the way off (it's epoxied together, not snapped together like most keyfobs). This is the only way that I've found to split the two halves cleanly.

According to my deep research and some chat with the suppliers, these keys support 315 mhz keys only and newer ones support 315 mhz and 434 mhz. If you happen to have a regular F30 car with the 868 mhz key, unfortunately it doesn't work. |

So I did this mod successfully to my F10 M5, some details for anyone who plans on doing this themselves:
You need to swap both black chips, not just the one circled. Make sure the key you buy matches the frequency of your key, in my case I had a 315mhz key so that's what I bought. To cut the key blank, most locksmiths won't have the setup to do F series BMW Keys, so have them cut it as a 2016 Chevy Impala key (weird I know, but it worked for me. As always, YMMV) My research also shows that tools exist to program the fob after dumping the CAS flash to get the encryption code, then writing that to a blank key. It's unknown if this will work with the retrofit key, but if someone has the tool I'd like to work something out to give it a try. One I found that could possibly work is an AK91+ key writer, but I don't plan on purchasing one. For those local to south Florida, PM me if interested in being part of a group buy for the blade fob. Once I figure out the forum rules regarding a group buy, I plan on doing a forum wide one around August/September, where people would ship me your spare keys and I have my technician and locksmith down here swap the chips and cut the new blank. Your old key case will be lost in the process, as the case is ultrasonically welded closed and must be cut open to remove the circuit board. |
