Sony Vaio PCG84L with numerous non working keys. Any thought's? Or, should it see a specialist?????
 
You could always try and "pop" the keys off the laptop board and see if there is any dust/fluff stopping them working, otherwise you may need to drop the laptop off at a Sony Service Centre to fix. I'm not sure how much that would cost though - I guess it is out of warranty?
 
As Ian said, pop off the offending keys (you can buy a special tool for this, RS Components, amongst others, can supply one) then vacum out any dirt and fluff.

If that doesn't work a small (read small) squirt of WD40 into top of key, so it penetrates the interior, may work.
