Yes, you need two keys already recognised by the car in order to
program it to recognise a third key.

A full set of 2 if not 3 keys should be included in the sale of the car from
a dealer FOC. Bit late now probably.

You need 2 keys in order to program a 3rd etc. yourself.

If you only have 1, the car needs hooking upto the diagnostic machine to do
the job.
