FAQs for Swanscombe Drivers
Can you make a new car key without the original?
Yes. We can cut and program a replacement key using your vehicle’s VIN, lock data, or by reading immobiliser information via OBD2. For certain models, EEPROM or ECU/immobiliser programming may be required.
Will you damage my car when unlocking it?
We use non-destructive entry techniques wherever possible. If a lock is severely damaged or aftermarket-fitted, we’ll explain any risks and options before proceeding.
How long does it take to get a new key in DA10?
Many standard replacements are completed in a single visit. Times vary by make, model, key type (remote, transponder, or smart/proximity), and whether advanced programming is required.
My car key fob has stopped working—what should I try?
First, try a fresh battery. If issues persist, it could be a programming fault, button wear, or immobiliser sync issue. We can test and repair or replace the fob on site. See key fob not working for common causes.
