FAQs For Outwood Drivers
Can you make a new car key if I’ve lost the original in Outwood?
Yes. We can create and program a new key without the original by using your vehicle’s VIN and immobiliser data, and by accessing the security system with dealer-level tools. We’ll also help you erase the lost key from the system for security. See more on lost or stolen car keys.
Will you damage my car when unlocking it?
We use non-destructive entry techniques wherever possible. If a rare exception is necessary due to a specific lock or failure, we’ll explain the options, risks, and costs first, and proceed only with your approval.
My key fob has stopped working—do I need a new one?
Not always. Sometimes it’s a dead battery or a simple sync issue. If the fob or transponder is faulty, we can repair or replace it and then program it to your car. Read more about key fob not working problems.
How long does car key programming take?
Many jobs are completed in one visit, often within the same appointment window. Timing depends on the vehicle make/model, key type (remote, smart/proximity), and immobiliser system.
