**kenp** · 13th July 2009, 21:36

Hi Guys

i was wondering.. i know theres diffent keys (flipkeys, normal keys, 2 button and 3 button, with heat reflective windscreen, without heat reflective, long range and short range keys, h-serie, z-serie)

all those i can figure out by looking at my car...

But dammit theres also different mhz they are transpondign on.. that i cant figureout what to pic..

Theres 315 MHZ and 433 MHZ.. what is the correct one? or will both work? (and theres some with 433,92 MHZ)

If you give you key code to the dealer they will order the correct key for you car. only flip keys are available for the vectra c now. 2 button keys are for corsa and astra . 3 button for Vectra C , signum.

Only had the old style keys for my Veccy so went to the stealers to get a nice flip one. I was given the option of the old or new style. As it was a flip one i wanted of course I got the new style.

As for 2 or 3 button, I thought it was only if you had the auto locking boot that you needed the 3 button key? I didn't think this was standard for all Vectra C models?

Only one will work. My three button old-style key (part number 2441 5490) has "433.92 MHz" printed on the back of it. My other key has this text worn off.

I would guess that maybe it depends which country you are in...

I think the different frequencies are country dependent Ken!

Which on a lighter note, may mean that I can drive to Denmark, pull up outside your house, lock my car and switch channels on your TV at the same time!!
