FAQs
Can you program a Toyota smart key without the original?
Yes. In many cases we can add or program a new Toyota smart key without the original using OBD2 or EEPROM/immobiliser procedures. The exact method depends on the model and system, which we’ll confirm on arrival.
My Toyota says “Key Not Detected.” Is it the key or the car?
It could be a depleted fob battery, a damaged smart key, or an antenna/immobiliser issue in the vehicle. We diagnose on-site, test signal strength, replace batteries if needed, and reprogram or repair components to restore function.
Do you cover Toyota hybrids like Prius and C-HR?
Absolutely. We handle Prius, Auris Hybrid, Corolla Hybrid, C-HR, RAV4 Hybrid and more, including smart key programming and proximity systems common to Toyota hybrids.
Will you damage my Toyota when unlocking it?
We use non-destructive entry techniques wherever possible. On rare occasions where destructive methods are unavoidable (e.g., severely damaged locks), we explain options and costs before any work.
Can you help if my Toyota key snapped in the ignition?
Yes. We perform broken key extraction and can provide a new key blade or complete remote. If the ignition is damaged, we offer ignition repair and replacement on-site.
How long does Toyota key replacement take?
Many Toyota keys can be cut and programmed same visit. Timing varies by model, key type, and immobiliser system, but our mobile service is typically faster than a main dealer appointment.
