I'd find a different Holden dealer, I had a key fob fail on a VS that I had some years ago, & it was nothing like that amount of money.

Yea HSV8 is correct but if you still want security have a look inside the key. They are notorious for cracked/dry solder joints. I have a VR and they both failed the same. Car would crank but not start. Very obvious when you open them up.
