...perhaps.
As my W204 is just on six months old I decided to swap over the keys this morning and start using what was the "spare" one. Dunno what the limit of the rolling codes is, but I don't fancy having to get a key I haven't ever used re-coded when at some time in the future I need to use it. Oh, and this way all the batteries go flat at the same time
Anyway, to the point. As I swapped the keys over I noticed that the little sliding release catch for the "real" key is black on one of them and grey on the other. Is this just coincidence, or have MB been clever and given you a way of identifying each key?
