When You Need a Jaguar Auto Locksmith
Jaguar owners call us for a range of urgent and routine key and lock issues. If any of the following sounds familiar, we can help:
- Lost car keys after a trip to Slough High Street, Windsor, or a school run in Langley
- Locked keys in the boot at a supermarket in Cippenham or Burnham
- Key fob not responding, doors not unlocking, or “key not detected” on the dashboard
- Car key snapped in the door or ignition, or a worn blade no longer turning smoothly
- Central locking problems on one door, or intermittent remote locking
- Need a spare Jaguar key for peace of mind or a second driver
- Broken ignition key extraction, or key stuck in ignition
- Upgrading to a smart/proximity key or replacing a damaged flip key
We cover modern Jaguars with advanced immobiliser systems and keyless entry, as well as older models that require different techniques. Typical models we support include XE, XF, XJ, F-Pace, E-Pace, F-Type, I-Pace, and older X-Type/S-Type variants.
If you’re locked out now, our Vehicle Unlocking service uses skilled, non-destructive methods wherever possible, with rare exceptions clearly explained before any work.
How We Solve Jaguar Key, Lock, and Immobiliser Problems
We bring dealer-level capabilities to your roadside, driveway, or workplace anywhere in Slough and the SL postcodes.
-
Non-destructive vehicle entry
Our first approach is always non-destructive entry. We use specialist picks, wedges, and locking tools to open Jaguars without damage wherever possible. In the rare instance drilling or component replacement is necessary, we’ll explain why and get your approval before proceeding. -
Jaguar car key replacement and cutting
We cut Jaguar keys from code, existing keys, or directly from the lock/ignition when no key is available. High-accuracy cutting covers laser-cut and high-security blades. Need a spare? We provide on-site car key cutting and duplication for convenience. -
Jaguar car key programming
Modern Jaguars use transponder chips and sophisticated immobilisers. We handle transponder key programming, smart key programming, and proximity key replacement using OBD2 key programming and, where required, EEPROM/ECU immobiliser programming. Our equipment supports dealer-level coding and diagnostics for 2024/2025 models and earlier. -
Key fob repair and replacement
We repair faulty Jaguar fobs, replace worn buttons or shells, and fit new batteries. If the fob electronics are beyond repair, we supply and code replacement remotes. -
Ignition and lock repairs
From a key stuck in ignition to a lock barrel that won’t turn, we carry out ignition repair and replacement, lock refurbishment, and broken car key extraction. If your Jaguar’s central locking is temperamental, we can diagnose door module and actuator issues and advise on repairs. -
ECU and immobiliser support
Immobiliser faults can present as “key not detected,” the car not starting, or a key symbol lit on the dash. We use diagnostics to identify whether the issue is with the key, receiver, antenna ring, or ECU pairing and carry out the necessary reprogramming.
Wherever possible, our process is quick and non-invasive so you avoid the cost and downtime of dealer recovery.

Jaguar Auto Locksmith FAQs
Can you make a new Jaguar key without the original?
Yes. We can create a new key from the vehicle using specialist tools and data, then program it to your Jaguar’s immobiliser. This is often faster and more convenient than a dealer recovery. If you’ve lost all keys, bring proof of ownership for security.
Can you program Jaguar smart and proximity keys?
Yes. We provide smart key programming, proximity key replacement, and remote pairing using OBD2 diagnostics and, where required, EEPROM/ECU programming. We support popular models such as XF, XE, F-Pace, E-Pace, and F-Type.
Will you damage my Jaguar when unlocking it?
We use non-destructive entry techniques wherever possible. In rare cases where a component has failed and non-destructive entry isn’t feasible, we’ll explain the options and get your approval before proceeding.
My Jaguar shows “key not detected.” What should I do?
Try replacing the key fob battery and hold the fob near the start button or steering column antenna point. If it still fails, the issue may be with the key, receiver, or immobiliser. We can diagnose and resolve this on-site with dealer-level equipment.
How long does Jaguar key replacement take?
Most on-site replacements are completed in a single visit. Timing depends on model, key type (blade, remote, smart/proximity), and whether all keys are lost. We’ll give you an accurate time estimate when you call.
Is a locksmith faster than a Jaguar dealer for keys?
Often, yes. As a mobile auto locksmith, we come to you, avoiding dealership wait times and towing. Many customers find our service more convenient and cost-effective than a dealer, especially for emergencies.
Do you cover my part of Slough?
Yes. We cover Slough and the wider SL postcode area, including Langley, Cippenham, Burnham, Datchet, Eton, Windsor, Maidenhead, Iver, Stoke Poges, and more. Check the areas we cover across SL postcodes.
