Hi Guys,

1 set of my car key/remote was lost/stolen. It is a Nissan SUV. The dealer said if I want to change all keysets/locks, it will cost P20k.

I know the vehicle has an immobilizer system. Was thinking of having the dealer reprogram the remote to a different frequency. Is the immobilizer system purely dependent on the key only? Or does the remote also affect the system? Or is the remote purely for opening/closing doors?

Was thinking of just having the remote frequency changed. Assuming someone did steal my key/remote and assuming that person finds my SUV he/she cannot open the car using the remote since I changed the frequency? But he/she can use the key to manually open the driver door and use the key to start the engine right? This is where I need advice. What happend to the immobilizer system? Will it activate since the remote was not used to 'disable' the system?

Hope to get some good advice as P20k to replace all locksets including keys and ignition is expensive.

Thanks
