About the Service
What Car Immobilizer Key Programming Actually Covers
Key-related authorization within a vehicle immobilizer or anti-theft system. Modern vehicle keys can combine a physical blade, transponder chip, remote-control functions and proximity electronics, so the correct method depends on what your vehicle actually uses.
The immobilizer is designed to prevent the engine from being started by an unauthorized key. An immobilizer warning or no-start symptom does not automatically prove that programming is the cause; battery, electrical, antenna, ECU or other faults can produce overlapping symptoms. Our page is intentionally focused on key-related immobilizer work rather than ECU tuning or unrelated engine-control programming.
Common Situations
When You May Need This Service
These are typical reasons customers contact us. The final service is confirmed after the vehicle and symptoms are checked.
A transponder key replacement needs authorization.
All authorized keys have been lost.
A key-related immobilizer issue needs to be distinguished from another starting fault.
What We Check
Before a Technician Is Arranged
A short vehicle check helps us avoid sending the wrong key, tool or service for the job.
Vehicle identification
Make, exact model, year and where relevant the market specification.
Current key status
Whether a recognized key still works, only a spare is needed, or every key is lost.
Key functions
Engine start, remote buttons, proximity detection and mechanical blade operation.
Service location
Your exact area so mobile availability and travel can be checked before dispatch.
How It Works
From Enquiry to Vehicle Service
We use the vehicle information first, then confirm the likely requirement before arranging suitable mobile assistance.
- 01Send your vehicle details
Make, model, year and current location.
- 02Explain the key or lock problem
Tell us what happened and which functions still work.
- 03We assess compatibility
The likely key system, service and parts requirement are checked.
- 04Quote & arrange service
Where supported, the expected work is confirmed before dispatch.
Important Difference
Working Key vs All Keys Lost
If at least one recognized key still works, the route can be different from an all-keys-lost case. When no working key remains, access, key generation and vehicle-security procedures can be more involved.
We ask this early because it can affect the tools, parts, time and procedure required for the job.
Vehicle Coverage
Vehicle Brands We Commonly Assess
Compatibility is confirmed from the exact model and year rather than the brand name alone.

FAQ
Car Immobilizer Key Programming Questions
How much does immobilizer programming cost?
Pricing depends on the vehicle, key type, year, whether a working key remains, parts required and your location. Send those details for a vehicle-specific quotation.
Do you provide this as a mobile service?
Suitable jobs can be arranged as a mobile service across Colombo and surrounding areas, subject to vehicle support and technician availability.
What should I send before booking?
Send the vehicle make, exact model, year, location, current key situation and a short description of the problem. Clear key photos can also help when a key remains.
Can you help if all keys are lost?
Potentially, depending on the vehicle. All-keys-lost work can follow a different process from adding a key when a recognized key remains.
Can I supply my own replacement key?
It can be assessed, but compatibility cannot be assumed from appearance alone. Electronics, frequency, transponder type and vehicle specification may differ.
