Is there a mercedes aam / das valet key (ml, slk, sl & more) shop in New Orleans I should use instead?
Most New Orleans shops don't keep the bench equipment for mercedes aam / das valet key (ml, slk, sl & more) — they'd forward the module to a specialist anyway, which adds a markup and a middleman. Going direct to us is usually faster and cheaper. Neighboring state — 1-2 days each way.
Does Louisiana vehicle inspection or emissions testing affect this service?
Louisiana requires a safety inspection sticker statewide, with emissions testing in a handful of Baton Rouge-area parishes. Our service is bench module programming only — you remain responsible for your vehicle's compliance with all Louisiana and federal requirements.
Which module do I send?
On the W163 ML-Class it is the AAM — the All Activity Module. On the classic passenger cars (R170 SLK, R129 SL, W140 S, W461 G) it is the DAS/SKREEM immobilizer unit. Text your VIN first and we tell you exactly which box your car uses and where it is mounted, with pull instructions, before you take anything apart.
Why do you need my door lock for all-keys-lost?
The new key needs a cut blade and there is no key code to look up on cars this age — the cut lives in your locks. We decode the driver's door lock on the bench and cut the blade to match. If you still have any working key, ship that instead and we copy its cut — no lock needed.
