Remote programming instruction
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Here are instructions that I found here...and they worked on my 02 limited.
1. unlock all of the doors in the car, open the driver's side door, and make sure the key is not in the ignition
2. put the key into the ignition and then pull it out without turning it or anything
3. within 40 seconds, lock and then unlock the doors five times using the power lock button on the driver's side door.
4. close the door and then open it again
5. within 40 seconds lock and then unlock the doors five times again using the power lock button.
6. Put the key into the ignition and turn it to the on position (not acc and not far enough to actually start the engine) and then back to the off position, then back to on and back to off.
7. Pull the key out of the ignition
8. If you are successful, after about 5 seconds, the doors should power lock and then unlock on their own. If that doesn't happen then try again from step 1.
9. within 40 seconds, hold down the lock and unlock button simultaneously on the remote for a second. Then release and hold down the lock button for 3 seconds. The power locks should cycle again once on their own. If they don't cycle exactly once, repeat this step from the beginning with the remote again.
10. Repeat step 9 for every remote you want to program. You have to do this with any remotes that were previously programmed because this process essentially resets what remotes the car will respond to.
11. Close the driver's side door to signify that you are done programming the remotes.

[Docket No. NHTSA 2009–0143; Notice 2]

Certification; Importation of Vehicles
and Equipment Subject to Federal
Safety, Bumper, and Theft Prevention
Standards; Registered Importers of
Vehicles Not Originally Manufactured
To Conform to the Federal Motor
Vehicle Safety Standards
AGENCY
:
National Highway Traffic
Safety Administration (NHTSA), DOT.
ACTION
:
Final rule.
SUMMARY
:
This document amends
NHTSA’s regulations pertaining to
registered importers (‘‘RIs’’) of motor
vehicles not originally manufactured to
comply with all applicable Federal
motor vehicle safety. The agency is
amending RI application and renewal
requirements to enable the agency to
deny applications for registration from
entities that have been convicted of a
crime related to the importation,
purchase, or sale of a motor vehicle or
motor vehicle equipment and to revoke
existing registrations held by such
entities. Another amendment will
require an RI to certify that it destroyed
or exported nonconforming motor
vehicle equipment removed from a
vehicle during conformance
modifications. The agency is also
establishing new requirements for motor
vehicles imported under import
eligibility petitions, adopting a clearer
definition of the term ‘‘model year’’ for
import eligibility purposes, and
requiring that import eligibility
petitions include the type classification
and gross vehicle weight rating
(‘‘GVWR’’) of the subject vehicle. This
notice also adopts several amendments
to the RI regulations that add citations
to provisions that can be used as a basis
for the non-automatic suspension of an
RI registration, deletes redundant text
from another provision, and revises
several sections to include the agency’s
current mailing address.
DATES
:
The amendments established by
this final rule will become effective
September 26, 2011. Petitions for
reconsideration must be received by
NHTSA not later than October 11, 2011.
ADDRESSES
:
Petitions for reconsideration
of this final rule should refer to the
docket and notice numbers identified
above and should be submitted to:
Administrator, National Highway
Traffic Safety Administration, 1200 New
Jersey Avenue, SE., West Building,
Washington, DC 20590. It is requested,
but not required, that 10 copies of the
petition be submitted. The petition must
be received not later than 45 days after
publication of this final rule in the
Federal Register
. Petitions filed after
that time will be considered petitions
filed by interested persons to initiate
rulemaking pursuant to 49 U.S.C.
Chapter 301.
The petition must contain a brief
statement of the complaint and an
explanation as to why compliance with
the final rule is not practicable, is
unreasonable, or is not in the public
interest. Unless otherwise specified in
the final rule, the statement and
explanation together may not exceed 15
pages in length, but necessary
attachments may be appended to the
submission without regard to the 15-
page limit. If it is requested that
additional facts be considered, the
petitioner must state the reason why
they were not presented to the
Administrator within the prescribed
time. The Administrator does not
consider repetitious petitions and
unless the Administrator otherwise
provides, the filing of a petition does
not stay the effectiveness of the final
rule.

I. Background of This Rulemaking

A. The 1968 Importation Regulations
and the Imported Vehicle Safety
Compliance Act of 1988
The National Traffic and Motor
Vehicle Safety Act of 1966 as amended
(‘‘the Safety Act’’), now codified at 49
U.S.C. chapter 301, requires imported
vehicles to meet Federal motor vehicle
safety standards (‘‘FMVSS’’). Effective
January 10, 1968, a regulation jointly
issued by NHTSA and the United States
Customs Service (‘‘Customs’’), 19 CFR
12.80, allowed permanent importation
of motor vehicles not originally
manufactured to meet applicable
FMVSS if, within 120 days from the
date of entry, the importer demonstrated
that the vehicle had been brought into
compliance with those standards.
The Imported Vehicle Safety
Compliance Act of 1988 (Pub. L. 100–
562, ‘‘the 1988 Act’’), which became
effective on January 31, 1990, limited
the importation of vehicles that did not
comply with the FMVSS to those
capable of being modified to comply. To
enhance oversight, the 1988 Act
required that necessary modifications be
performed by ‘‘registered importers’’
(‘‘RIs’’). RIs are business entities that
have demonstrated to NHTSA that they
are technically and financially capable
of importing nonconforming motor
vehicles and of performing the
necessary modifications on those
vehicles so that they conform to all
Agreements between automobile manufacturers and dealerships prohibiting export of new automobiles
Agreements between automobile manufacturers and dealerships prohibiting export of
new automobiles.
3. Automobile manufacturers, including Mercedes Benz, General Motors, Toyota,
Volkswagen, Audi, and Porsche, have long-standing contractual agreements with their dealerships
that new automobiles made for sale inside the United States may not be sold to individuals or
companies intending to export the new automobiles outside the United States
4. Automobile manufacturers impose this prohibition on not exporting new automobiles
because unauthorized exports of their new automobiles cause numerous financial problems to the
manufacturers by creating problems in the manufacturers’ distribution markets, causing market
infringement problems, harming franchise dealerships, and causing problems relating to vehicle
recall registration and service.
5. The contractual agreements between automobile manufacturers and dealerships carry
monetary penalties, commonly called “charge backs,” which automobile manufacturers may assess
against dealerships if the manufacturers determine that dealerships are selling new automobiles to
purchasers who intend to export them rather than use them in the United States.
6. In order to determine whether new automobiles are being exported in violation of
these contractual agreements, automobile manufacturers monitor export documents and records at
ports throughout the United States. Automobile manufacturers hire a company, PIERS, a division
of UBM Global Trade, Inc., to collect such documents and records, in part so that the manufacturers
can determine whether new automobiles are being exported in violation of their agreements with
dealerships not to do so.
7. Automobile manufacturers have assessed monetary and other penalties against
automobile dealerships, including those listed above in paragraph 3, when the manufacturers
determine that the dealerships have sold new automobiles which were exported directly from the
United States.
8. Many dealerships, in order to avoid penalties under their contractual agreements with
manufacturers not to sell new automobiles which will be exported, take additional steps in dealing
with customers to obtain assurances from customers that the customers are not going to export the
new automobiles. These additional steps sometimes require that purchasers of automobiles sign
statements, commonly called “do not export agreements,” that they do not intend to export the new
automobiles after purchasing them.
