Are you in need of a replacement key fob for your 2013 BMW 328i? Losing or damaging your car key can be a stressful experience, but finding a reliable and cost-effective replacement shouldn’t be. This guide provides you with everything you need to know about replacing your 2013 Bmw 328i Key Fob, ensuring you get back on the road quickly and securely.
Understanding Your 2013 BMW 328i Key Fob
The 2013 BMW 328i key fob is more than just a key; it’s a sophisticated piece of technology that offers keyless entry and push-to-start functionality. These smart remotes, also known as transmitters, communicate with your vehicle’s system to lock, unlock, and even start your car with the push of a button. For 2013 BMW 328i models, these key fobs are designed for vehicles equipped with a push-to-start/stop button on the dashboard and a proxy keyless entry system.
It’s important to note that there are typically two frequency options for BMW key fobs: 315 MHz and 433 MHz. To ensure compatibility, it’s recommended to contact your BMW dealership to verify the correct frequency for your 2013 BMW 328i key fob. Our aftermarket replacement remotes are available in both frequencies to match your vehicle’s specifications.
