How do you duplicate a BMW Z4 key?

Model: BMW Z4 G29 - Years 2019-2026
Part: Key

Duplicating the key of a BMW Z4 is not a simple operation like copying any key. It is necessary to have a compatible blank key, machinery to carve the correct profile, and, above all, program the transponder (immobilizer) so that the car recognizes it. The remote control must also be separately coded, synchronizing it with the ECU. What are the available options? You can contact BMW (high cost, but safe) or a specialized auto key center with the necessary equipment. Online, blank keys can be found at convenient prices, but without programming they remain just pieces of plastic. In summary, it is better to rely on an expert to avoid inconveniences!
