FAQs For Cranbourne Drivers
Can you make a car key without the original?
Yes. We can create a new key from your vehicle’s locks and immobiliser data using dealer-level diagnostics. This is a common request after a complete key loss. For security, we can also remove lost keys from the system so they no longer start the car.
Will unlocking my car damage the door or locks?
We use non-destructive entry techniques wherever possible. If a lock is severely damaged or a previous attempt has caused issues, we’ll discuss options first and proceed only with your consent.
How long does it take to get a new car key?
Many replacements are completed in a single visit, often within one appointment. Timings vary by make, model, and whether it’s a standard, remote, or smart key. We’ll confirm expected timescales when you call.
Do you cover evenings and weekends in Cranbourne?
Yes. We provide emergency support outside normal hours. If you’re locked out or need urgent help, please call and we’ll advise on current availability.
My key fob stopped working—do I need a full replacement?
Not always. Sometimes a battery swap or re-synchronisation fixes it. If the circuit board or buttons are faulty, we can repair or replace the fob and reprogram it to your car.
What if my key is stuck in the ignition?
Do not force it. We can perform broken key extraction, ignition repair, or replacement, depending on the cause. We’ll diagnose the issue on site and explain your options clearly.
