When You Need A Skoda Auto Locksmith

Typical models we work on include Fabia, Octavia, Superb, Scala, Karoq, Kodiaq, Enyaq, Rapid, Roomster, Citigo, and Yeti (petrol, diesel, and hybrid/EV where applicable).
If you’re unsure what’s wrong, we can diagnose on site with dealer-level equipment and advise the quickest, most cost-effective fix.

Frequently Asked Questions
Can you make a new Skoda key without the original?
Yes. With proof of ownership, we can cut a new key to code and program it to your Skoda’s immobiliser on site. For some models we use OBD2 programming; others require EEPROM or ECU/immobiliser procedures.
Will you damage my Skoda when unlocking it?
We use non-destructive entry methods wherever possible. In rare cases where a lock is severely damaged or aftermarket parts are fitted, we’ll explain any risks and obtain your approval before proceeding.
My Skoda key fob isn’t working—do I need a new one?
Not always. Sometimes a simple battery replacement or button pad repair fixes it. If the electronics have failed, we can supply and program a replacement fob and deauthorise lost keys for security.
How long does it take to get a new Skoda key?
Many replacements are completed in a single visit. Timing depends on model, key type (flip, remote, proximity), and whether all keys are lost. We’ll give you an accurate ETA when you call.
Is this cheaper and faster than a dealer?
Often, yes. As a mobile service, we come to you, which saves towing or waiting for dealer lead times. We also handle all-keys-lost scenarios on site. For personalised pricing, see auto locksmith prices West London.
