Yes, have someone pull the EEPROM off of your ECU, then do an IMMO defeat until you're able to get a new key, then load your original EEPROM back onto the ECU after that. (This will cost more than the key, so basically no there isn't)

Sorry man, keys and coding keys on a Mk4 isn't expensive if you can find a blank key, have it cut and program it with VCDS.

You can have a second hand key coded yes but do you have the ignition barrel for it?

Got a key and ignition from my old Jetta 4...Everyone I ask here in Witbank told me they cant reprogram a used key/chip...They need a virgin key/chip...Maybe they just don't know how to or just want to make more money by selling me a key and chip...
