I have been through this a couple of times with my wife's Polo. Most locksmiths said they couldn't do it & the other ones said they could try but it doesn't always work particularly for the ones on Ebay. The key for the Polo has the "ski slope" cut on both sides that only a few could cut & if the programe didn't work it was money down the drain. The T4 has a different profile so this info may not apply.
