I would hope so! I have the worst luck in the world with oil leaks in general. Checked the car when I got home tonight. I'm either on crack or it's playing games. Checked oil level for times. First was dry. Wtf? Second read was overfull. third and fourth were dry..I'll just have to check it in the morning. Valve cover gasket looked dry though. stupid a$$ plastic pos.

I am doing key FOB Jim, not keys. I don't have a PATS key system.
Oh, I am not quite sure what a fob is, is it a remote door lock unlock?

So you saying your key doesn't have a computer chip in it? My dads 05 does
