Car Key Programming

Professional key programming at your location — home, work or roadside. We programme keys for virtually all makes and models, including prestige and European vehicles.

What is Car Key Programming?

Modern vehicles use an immobiliser system that requires your key to be electronically matched to the car's ECU before it will start. Simply cutting a key to the correct shape is no longer enough — the key must also be programmed with the correct transponder code.

At Auto Locks 24/7, we use professional-grade diagnostic and programming equipment to programme new keys, spare keys, and replacement keys directly to your vehicle at the roadside. No towing, no dealer waiting lists, no inflated main dealer prices.

Key Programming Services

Replacement Key Programming

Lost or broken your only key? We supply and programme a brand-new key to your vehicle on-site, getting you back on the road fast.

Spare Key Programming

The smartest thing you can do is get a spare key programmed while you still have a working one. Far cheaper than an all-keys-lost job.

All Keys Lost Programming

No working keys at all? We can programme a brand-new key to most vehicles without needing the original, using specialist equipment.

Transponder Key Programming

We programme transponder chips for a wide range of vehicles, including older systems that many locksmiths can't handle.

Remote & Key Fob Programming

Central locking not responding? We programme remote fobs and proximity keys so your locks and alarm work correctly.

Prestige & European Vehicles

Specialists in Audi, BMW, Volkswagen, Land Rover, Volvo, Mercedes, Porsche and more — including MLB Evo and advanced immobiliser systems.
