A bit related,.. friend of mine needed a spare key for his x5. Local locksmith put him in touch with an older russian man, man pulls up to his house in specially outfitted van with tons of equipment in the back. My friend is a little foggy on the details because he doesn't know much more about cars but he tells me that the man took down a few numbers inside the car, plugged something into his obd port and then made a copy of his key transponder. I didn't believe him till he showed me his new key with russian writing in the back where you would normally see english. cool stuff!
