Why the machine matters more than the make

Modern vehicle security is platform-specific. A Volkswagen IMMO system needs different tooling to a Ford, a BMW to a Renault. Most locksmiths carry one or two general-purpose machines. I carry seven, each matched to specific platforms — which is why I can handle jobs others decline.

Every card below shows which machine I use for that make and any year limits that apply to all-keys-lost jobs. Spare key programming, fob repairs, lockouts and ignition work have no year limits on any make listed. Read more about the equipment on the About page.

Year Limits & Restrictions

All-Keys-Lost Year Limits

Most makes have no year restrictions. Two exceptions apply only to all-keys-lost jobs — all other service types (spare keys, fob repairs, lockouts, programming) have no year limits on any make.

⚠ BMW
All-keys-lost up to 2019

Post-2019 BMW vehicles use an updated BDC security system that requires manufacturer-level tooling not available to independent locksmiths. Spare keys, fob repairs and lockouts: all years covered.

⚠ Mercedes-Benz
Cars to 2014 · Vans to 2018

Post-2014 cars and post-2018 vans use NXP/Infineon IMMO chips requiring OEM dealer tooling for all-keys-lost. Spare keys, fob repairs and lockouts: all years covered.

✓ All Other Makes
No year limits

All remaining 33 makes have no practical year limits for all-keys-lost jobs using the current machine set. Call with your make, model and year to confirm before I travel.

Always confirm first: Call 07949 827 795 with your make, model and year before any booking. I confirm whether the job is within scope before I travel — no surprise refusals on arrival.
Make-Specific Questions

Vehicle Make FAQs

My car is not listed — do you still cover it?
Can you programme a key for a car newer than 2023?
Do you cover the same make in different service types — e.g. lockout and key programming?
What if I have an electric vehicle?
Do year limits apply to spare key programming, not just all-keys-lost?
