Modern car keys contain a transponder chip that communicates with the vehicle's immobiliser system. Simply cutting a key blade isn't enough — the transponder must be programmed to match your specific vehicle before the engine will start. This is what key programming is all about.
Having a spare key made is one of those jobs people put off until it's too late — and then they're stuck with an all-keys-lost situation that costs three times as much. At Doyen Auto Services, we make it easy and affordable to get a spare key programmed for your vehicle.
We carry out key programming at our Rutherglen workshop for a wide range of makes and models. We can program standard transponder keys, flip keys, and smart proximity keys depending on the vehicle. The physical key blade is cut on-site to match your existing locks, so you get a complete working key.
