When I bought my car last week, all I was given was one key and all it fits is the ignition (black Porsche key). I was pretty sure the ignition key should also fit the other locks but it doesn't. Maybe the ignition was replaced? Anyway, what should I do to get door and trunk keys? Can a locksmith make them? Do I need Porsche blanks? Can a Porsche dealer get me keys? Help !

Or he can go back to post 7 & follow my suggestions. Or he can send them to me for rekeying.

Turns out my key did work the lock. It was just so freakin' full of dried out grease it wouldn't turn. I followed your instructions for rekeying all the way up to changing the tumblers (didn't need to). I did deviate it "over" cleaning, as I;m very anal withthis kinda stuff. I removed all the blanks and springs, soaked everything in solvent and reassembled. Like you said, the plastic collar was deteriorated, so I reassembled without it, and used lots of lube. It works like new.
