Just wanted to say this guide helped with my 2010 Volvo XC60!

I think my 2010 Volvo XC60 has the same issue. Good to know I'm not alone.

I can’t believe I found this. Been stuck with my 2010 Volvo XC60 too.

Appreciate the tips—trying to unlock my 2010 Volvo XC60 key code too.

Key Tip: Always have at least two working keys to avoid expensive replacements
Lost Keys
Locksmiths or dealers can: 1) Decode your door or ignition lock to determine key cuts 2) Access your car's key code through manufacturer databases (with proof of ownership) 3) Program new transponder keys using diagnostic equipment.
