Im not sure about this one. I imagine BMW would say that you need a new key at around £50.
I've never heard of one being repaired.

To stop your alarm going off, you get 15 seconds after unlocking the door to put your key in the ignition and turn it on. Hope that helps in the meantime.

Is the button damaged? Think the keys are quite a bit and include an hours labour to program the BC-1 for the new key and transponder.
