Why Audi keys are not a generic locksmith job
You do not need to know what platform your car is on — send us the registration and we will. But if you are comparing quotes, this is the part that separates a shop that can actually finish the job from one that gets halfway and calls a recovery truck.
MQB / MQB48 component protection
Group cars built from roughly 2013 onward (Golf 7 and 8, Polo 6, T-Roc, T-Cross, Tiguan 2, Passat B8, Arteon, Audi A3 8V/8Y, Q2, Q3, Skoda Octavia 3/4, Superb 3, Kodiaq, SEAT Leon 3/4, Ateca, Cupra Formentor) use component-protected keys. The key is married to the immobiliser data held across several modules, so it cannot simply be cloned — the correct authenticated procedure has to be used or the car ends up immobilised properly.
KESSY and proximity systems
Keyless entry and go adds a second layer: aerial rings, interior sensors and a comfort-access module that all have to see the new key. We test entry, start, boot release and comfort functions before leaving, not just that the engine cranks.
Older PQ25 / PQ35 / PQ46 immobilisers
Golf Mk4 to Mk6, Polo 9N/6R, Passat B6/B7, Octavia 2, Leon 1P, A3 8P, A4 B7/B8 and the T5 Transporter generation. Different equipment, different route, still handled on site.
All keys lost on a Group car
The job dealers most like to quote a recovery truck for. Where the platform allows it we generate a new key from the vehicle's own data, program it, and where supported remove the missing keys from the immobiliser so they can no longer start the car.
Vans and commercials
Transporter T5/T6/T6.1, Caddy, Crafter and the Skoda/SEAT commercial derivatives — including keys lost off-site at a depot or yard.
What we tell you before booking
Some vehicles and some security platforms genuinely are dealer-only, and a handful of the newest Group cars need manufacturer-side authorisation. We check your registration first and say so up front rather than attend, fail, and still charge you for the visit.

On selected services over £250, you can split the total into 3 or 4 monthly payments with 0% APR available. A small deposit is paid on the day, then the remaining balance is collected in equal monthly instalments. No long forms, no waiting — applied on site before work begins.
