MechanMagic replacement key fob is a brand-new, 4-button keyless-entry remote (FCC: NHVWB1U711) built to replace worn or lost Subaru remotes and ready for professional programming.

If your Subaru Legacy, Outback, Forester, Impreza WRX/STI or B9 Tribeca uses the 434 MHz NHVWB1U711 transmitter, this MechanMagic remote provides a direct-fit aftermarket alternative to OEM part numbers 88036SC030, 88036FG000, and 88036FG030. The unit ships fully assembled with battery and internal electronics, pre-tested before dispatch, and is intended to be programmed by a locksmith or dealer. It matches the 4-button layout and standard transmitter function used on many mid-2000s Subaru models.

Will this key fob physically fit my Subaru model?

Check the vehicle model years and part numbers first: this remote targets specific Subaru models from the 2005–2009 range. Confirm your vehicle uses FCC ID NHVWB1U711 and matches the listed OEM part numbers to ensure a correct fit.

  • Fits: 2005–2007 Legacy and Outback models.
  • Fits: 2009 Forester and 2007–2009 Impreza/WRX/STI versions.
  • Fits: 2006–2008 B9 Tribeca models.
  • Match FCC ID and part numbers (88036SC030, 88036FG000, 88036FG030) before ordering.

How do I get the remote programmed and working with my car?

This MechanMagic remote requires professional programming; it is sold ready to program but not pre-synced to any vehicle. A locksmith typically has the equipment to clone or program aftermarket remotes, and some dealerships may not program non-OEM units due to tooling differences.

  • Programming must be performed by a qualified locksmith or Subaru dealer.
  • Bring proof of ownership and your vehicle information to the programmer.
  • Expect programming to take only a short appointment once at the shop.
  • Some dealers may decline aftermarket remotes; locksmiths are usually the best option.

What does the package include and how reliable is the product?

The remote arrives as a complete keyless-entry transmitter with internal electronics and an installed battery, tested prior to shipping. It is a brand-new aftermarket unit built to work at 434 MHz with the specified IC ID, and it’s intended as a one-to-one replacement for the original transmitter.

  • Includes: one 4-button MechanMagic key fob with battery installed.
  • Frequency: 434 MHz; IC ID: 3495A-WB1U711.
  • Quality: fully pre-tested electronics and battery before shipment.
  • Note: only compatible with regular (non-smart) key configurations.

Are there any important limitations or installation notes?

This remote replicates the 4-button appearance and standard transmitter functions but does not replace transponder-equipped smart keys or proximity systems. Verify button layout and housing match your original remote before purchase.

  • Works only with regular key vehicles, not proximity keyless or smart-key systems.
  • Confirm button functions and housing match photographs and description.
  • Aftermarket units require programming; follow locksmith or dealer guidance.
  • Sold as a single transmitter; cutting of metal blade (if required) and immobilizer sync are separate services.

Who is this for: The MechanMagic replacement remote is ideal for Subaru owners of supported model years who need an inexpensive, brand-new transmitter to replace a lost, damaged, or failing OEM remote. It's a good choice if you want a ready-to-program 4-button unit with matching FCC ID and OEM part number compatibility, and if you can arrange professional programming through a locksmith or dealer.
