Has anyone had trouble getting a key made with the VIN ?

While I was picking up a new exhaust pipe ($190) from our local Volvo dealer I wanted to have a new key made. The partsman said that the VIN came up as a 1986 car and the chassis serial number produced a different key form.

Looking up how to decode the VIN online (http://apps.volvocars.us/ownersdocs/1987/1987_VIN-VIC/vin1987.html) says the car is an '87 245. The VIN is the same on the Mfg tag, the dash tag, and the drivers door.

Ideas ?

Greg
