A good Peugeot flip key will last for around five years before tiny hairline cracks begin to appear on the circuit board that generates the transponder chip signal. These cracks are not affecting the chip, but they could cause other problems with your Peugeot flip key.

One of the biggest problems with these Peugeot keys is that the flip mechanism, which holds the blade in place isn't very effective.
