Frequently asked questions
Will my key need reprogramming after the repair?
No, we keep the original electronics that are already programmed to your car, so reprogramming usually isn't needed.
Is it worth repairing a cracked remote rather than replacing it?
In most cases yes, repairing the shell, buttons or battery is quicker than sourcing and coding a whole new key.
Can you fix a bent or worn key blade?
Yes, we fit a new blade to the same key head, restoring a clean fit in the lock.
