Programming a New Key FOB
I own a 2013 X5 50i. I have been to various sites and numerous websites looking for a solution to program new key FOB’s aftermarket for my vehicle. Is there a way to program them with the vehicle or is this a dealer only $200.00 item I’m going to have to suffer through paying?

I have attached a screen shot from a person that owed me a favor. Hope this helps everyone looking for a cheaper fix to replacing a remote after market.
I have ordered a FOB on Amazon for 15.00 and when it arrives in will update on whether this works or not. |

It's not going to work, the key fob needs to be ordered directly from Germany with your corresponding VIN. The replacement key fob comes pre-programmed, those instructions you listed is just to activate it, upon arrival. |
