FAQs For North Acton Drivers
Can you unlock my car without damage?
Yes, we use non-destructive entry methods wherever possible. If a rare exception is required (for example, a severely damaged lock or a high-security profile that has failed), we’ll explain the reason, the method, and any costs before proceeding.
Can you make a new car key without the original?
In most cases, yes. We can create and program new keys and fobs using your vehicle’s VIN and immobiliser data. We use dealer-level diagnostics, OBD2, and EEPROM methods where appropriate to code the key securely.
How long does a replacement key take?
It depends on the vehicle and key type. A standard transponder key can often be cut and programmed on-site in a single visit; smart/proximity keys can take longer due to security protocols and syncing. We’ll advise realistic timeframes when you call.
