Why European keys need a specialist
German and European cars use some of the most advanced keys on the road: encrypted smart keys, keyless entry and push-to-start systems that have to be programmed to the car's computer. That's why dealers charge the most for them, and why many locksmiths turn these jobs down.
Alex works on them every week. He carries the programming tools and key blanks for European cars in the van, so most jobs are finished at your car in one visit.
Some vehicles require dealer support or work outside our mobile service. Alex confirms this on the phone, before booking.

What callers usually describe, and what it means.
"Key not detected" on the dashboardTry a fresh battery first. If the message stays, Alex checks whether the cause is the battery, the fob, the programming or the vehicle.
Lost the only keyFor covered models, a new key is made and programmed at the car, and where the car allows it, the lost key is erased so it can't start the car.
The buttons stopped workingOften a dead battery or a worn-out fob. Send a photo to help identify your key, and Alex will check whether the issue involves the battery, fob, programming or vehicle.
Keyless entry stopped workingComfort Access, KEYLESS-GO and similar systems can stop recognizing a key. Alex checks the key and the car, and tells you whether reprogramming or a new key is needed.
Bought a used car with one keyGet a spare before you lose it. A spare costs far less than replacing every key later.

European car key questions
Can you make a BMW or Mercedes key if I lost all of them?
For many models, yes: Alex makes and programs the new key at your car. Some vehicles require dealer support or work outside our mobile service, and Alex confirms this on the phone before booking.
Is it cheaper than the BMW, Mercedes or Audi dealer?
Yes, always, and there's no tow or service appointment. You get the exact price on the phone first.
Can a key be made from the VIN?
The VIN helps identify the exact key your car uses. Alex still programs the key at the car, and you'll need your ID and the registration or title.
My European key fob stopped working. What should I try first?
Try a fresh battery first. If the problem stays, send a photo to help identify your key, and Alex will check whether the issue involves the battery, fob, programming or vehicle.

Yes. Every key comes with a 3-month warranty.
