hi bought a key fob from ebay it looks identical and when i took it to the dealers they tell me thats not for a serdona so i said well its got kia on it and its identical well they said we dont know which kia its for soi took it to a key lock smith and they said your car wont talk to our machine so where would i have to have a word with the car and get it to except the code

I had a similar problem with an identical fob I bought on ebay from the USA and KIA garage couldn't code it. Reason is that they operate on different frequencies apparently. I was attracted by fact that including p&p it cost sub £10 from USA versus about £70 over here but alas the master plan had a flaw !

Best regards
Ian
