    so I bought the flip key(not from Joe, b/c I live in Calgary)
    Tried to program it and it doesn't work. followed all instructions and tried like 20 times and still no. Remote programmed no problem, but key is not working!

    I'm really stumped with your dilema. The only thing I can think of that could have happened is that they sold you the flip-key from the MPV. It looks exactly the same as the one's majority of the members have. Only it cannot be programmed to work on our 3's.

    Post up the part numbers... you need separate the button and key portions to see the numbers. You can get the two halves of the key apart by using a small screwdriver to press in the latch that holds them together... it's at the bottom of the slot the key folds into.

    The dealer sold him the correct part numbers. It's possible that he was given the wrong flip-key.

    Here's one.. how about a NORMAL KEY?! I want to know if I can buy and program a normal key.. the dealer here says no way.. yet in the states, and all the pics I've seen (thank you Car & Driver), the Speed's have normal keys..

    I just want a normal key in case of anything..
    I have two flip keys, but want a third, normal one..
    Is this possible, and if so, how much??

    This is for the 2010 3, and it is not a flip key. The fob is a keyless entry/start setup, with a removable key in case the battery dies or if you want to start the car and leave it locked and running.

    They said no because they probably never tried. Well next time you see them tell them that MOT has sold 6 "normal" Mazda 3 keys already. A regular Mazda 3 immobilizer key is $40. Programming is the same.

    I'd sure hate to loose the other half of key in a snow bank set if my car was already started and locked.

    In one of those rare black snow banks?

    Unless its snowing out or you throw it hard I don't think it would be covered too much and you could find it easily.

    Numbers are the same on the key that you provided my guess is that your car might be a U.S. model. Send me you VIN# via PM and I'll check it out.

    Is it possible for ukr_boy to buy a brand new 09 MZ3 Sport from a Canadian dealer (way out in Calgary, but that shouldn't matter) but got a US model?
