I don't think you can re-program yourself
You need to pay the dealer for it.
NOT cheap

I'm sure its the same concept as the sigma fobs on older models, just built into the key. If so, you can recode yourself.
Do you have an alarm keypad? I think its around the drivers side area on a newage.

I think the other replies on here are talking about programming the key transponder to the immobiliser, not the central locking.

Anyway, providing you either know the keypad password or, have another working key, you can do this:
