Hi, I lost my last key fob and want to know if theres anyway around going to a dealer or locksmith? I found new sealed ones at Amazon for $88 and want to know if theres a way I could program it myself? Like which programmer tool do I need to use or do I even need one? Also, could I reprogram a used one from a different car of the same year and model? It's a 2011 C70. Thanks.

Yes you can do it yourself. You will need a subscription from Volvotechinfo.com for 3, 30, or 365 day VIDA access. Also a Genuine DICE unit is needed to interface between your compatible cpu and the car. I've read recently where the cheap clone dice units no longer work with a VIDA subscription.

As far as I know you cannot reprogram a used key to work.

 

Thanks.
