Hello folks

Lost the SD card for my 2016 is200t f Sport. Do I have to buy a new one from the dealer or can I buy a preowned one from EBay? I know a new from the dealer is a plug and play. Will a preowned work or does it have to be programmed?
Appreciate any help.
Thanks

 

I believe it needs to programed.
My fiancee got her IS without one and luckily we had warranty, so they replaced it for free.

I think without warranty it's a hair over $2-300.

 

You need a new micro SD card for the vehicle...you cannot use one that's been installed into another vehicle before.
There is no way to program a used one to you vehicle.

Should we ask how you lost it? I'm trying to imagine different scenarios lol

 

I'll chime in this one - ironically, the dealer we got ours from, we found out one of the porters was stealing them and trying to sell them. He was doing this actually for nearly two years; got caught in a sting a little while later and now doing some time.
