If it's just the remote function lost on the key you have, you can re-sync that to the car without the master key.
You only need the master key to program the immobiliser chip (so, required if you want to get a spare key).
If you need to change the battery in the key, make sure the immobiliser chip doesn't fall out!
If you're sure the battery cell is good inside the key
To programme the lock/unlock feature:
1.Sit in the drivers seat & close all doors
2.Switch ignition on & off 4 times within 6 seconds (leave the key in the ignition barrel)
3.After switching ignition off the 4th time, programming mode is activated for around 10 seconds & you should hear an audible sound
4.Press & release any of the 3 buttons on your key, you should then hear an audible sound to indicate successful programming (at this stage, you would repeat this with additional keys if you had any - maximum 4 remote & 4 manual)
5.Exit programming mode by either turning the ignition on or by waiting around 10 seconds
6.Test the key lock/unlock feature
See if that works for you.
