FAQs For Drivers In Cheddington
Can you make a new car key without the original?
Yes. In most cases we can create and programme a new key from your vehicle’s information using dealer-level diagnostics and security procedures. This includes cutting the blade and programming the transponder and/or smart functions.
Will you damage my car when unlocking it?
We use non-destructive entry techniques wherever possible. If a rare situation demands drilling or component replacement, we’ll explain why, outline costs, and get your approval first.
How long does it take to get a new car key?
Many replacements are completed in one mobile visit, often the same day, depending on your make/model, key type (standard, remote, or smart), and parts availability.
Do you cover modern smart keys and push-to-start?
Yes. We handle smart key programming, proximity keys, and “key not detected” faults for many brands. Some late-model or high-security systems may require advanced programming (e.g., EEPROM/immobiliser work), which we can perform.
What if my key fob suddenly stopped working?
It could be a flat battery, a de-synchronised remote, a damaged PCB, or an immobiliser issue. We offer diagnosis and repair or replacement. See more under key fob not working solutions.
I’ve broken my key in the ignition outside my house. Can you help?
Yes. We can extract broken keys from locks/ignitions and provide repair or replacement keys. If the ignition itself is damaged, we can advise on repair or replacement. See car lock and ignition issues.
