FAQs

Can you program a Land Rover key without the original?

Yes. In most cases we can create and program a new key without the original using vehicle data and secure programming methods. For many models, we can also erase the missing key so it can’t start the vehicle.

My Land Rover says “Key Not Detected”. What should I do?

First, try a known-good battery in the fob and use the backup start position described in your manual. If that fails, the fob or vehicle antenna systems may be at fault. We can diagnose with OBD2 and program or replace the fob as needed.

Will you damage my Land Rover when unlocking it?

We use non-destructive entry techniques wherever possible, protecting your locks, glass and seals. On the rare occasion a component is already damaged or inaccessible, we’ll explain options and costs before work.

Do you cover Range Rover smart keys and push-to-start systems?

Absolutely. We program and replace smart/proximity keys for Evoque, Velar, Range Rover, and Range Rover Sport, including 2024/2025 models, using dealer-level tools.

How long does Land Rover key replacement take?

Most replacements are completed in one mobile visit. Timing depends on model, key type, and immobiliser status, but many jobs are finished the same day.

Is a mobile locksmith cheaper than going to a Land Rover dealer?

Often, yes. You avoid towing and long lead times, and we provide on-site programming. For a tailored figure, request an auto locksmith quote in Luton.
