Frequently Asked Questions
Not always, as we can often produce a replacement using the vehicle's security data even when no original exists. Having a working key can make some jobs quicker, but its absence rarely prevents us from helping. Our Hampshire-wide mobile service regularly supplies keys for drivers with no spare at all.
Some policies include key cover, either as standard or as an add-on, but this varies a great deal between insurers, so check your documents. Where cover applies, it may include the replacement and reprogramming. We're happy to provide an itemised record of the work to support any claim you make.
Yes, ordering a second or spare key is straightforward and far cheaper to arrange when you're not in a rush. Keeping a programmed spare means a single lost key never leaves you stranded. Our mobile team can cut and program an additional key at a time that suits you around Portsmouth.
Intermittent starting, a remote that only works up close or from certain angles, worn or cracked casing, and buttons that stick are all signs a key is on its way out. A failing key often gets gradually less reliable before it stops altogether. Replacing it early avoids being caught out at the worst moment.
Good-quality aftermarket keys, properly programmed, perform just as well as main-dealer keys for most vehicles and cost considerably less. The reliability comes down to using the right components and coding them correctly. Our technicians only fit keys we're confident will give you dependable, long-term use.
