FAQs For Ivinghoe Drivers
Can you make a new car key without the original in Ivinghoe?
Yes. We can decode your lock, cut a new blade, and program a transponder or smart key using OBD2 diagnostics or EEPROM/ECU procedures where needed. This is often faster and more convenient than a main dealer.
Will you damage my car when unlocking it?
We use non‑destructive entry methods wherever possible. In the rare event a lock is already damaged or a particular system requires it, we’ll explain options and obtain your approval before proceeding.
How long does it take to get a new key?
Many replacements are completed in a single mobile visit, often the same day subject to your vehicle and key type. Smart/proximity keys and certain brands can take longer due to security procedures, but we’ll advise accurate timescales when you call.
Do you cover vans and commercial vehicles in LU7?
Absolutely. We handle van key replacement, programming, unlocking and ignition repairs for popular models like Ford Transit, Mercedes‑Benz Sprinter, Vauxhall Vivaro, Renault Trafic and VW Transporter.
What if my key fob has stopped working after changing the battery?
Some fobs need re‑syncing or reprogramming after a battery change. We can test the fob, replace the shell or blade if needed, and perform remote key programming to restore function.
Can you help if my car won’t start and shows a key symbol on the dash?
Yes. That often indicates an immobiliser or transponder issue. We’ll diagnose via OBD2 and, if necessary, carry out key programming, ECU/immobiliser programming, or repair a faulty key fob.
