Quick question about Xsara remote key button replacement?

Hello,

Just a quick question....The remote key on my Xsara, the rubber buttons on the side are really worn, and id like to replace them...Asked at Citroen about getting a replacement button rubber, so I could just open the key up and replace the rubber bit, anyway, they told me they don't do that, they only replace the whole key (at least £50) which I don't want to do as the key is fine it's just the rubber bit of the buttons.

Anyone found anywhere I could get the button rubber from?

I found replacement key fobs for Peugeot's on ebay, (replaced the other half's plip cover fine) but not for the Xsara key.

The key has 2 buttons, and they are on the side of the plip unit.

Cheers,

Rob

Rob,

Provided the key is the fold out type with the rubber diaphrgam on the thin edge covering both buttons, then the dealer is talking gibberish, ask for:

00009926FE DIAPHRAGM 6.70 GBP

If it's the later, fixed blade, type, then new fob required.

MK11 Xsara keys are totally different.

Hi guys.
I think i have asked this here before.....if the key fob fails to unlock the car even after the battery has been changed, what's the next step in the diagnosis of a problem??
