Dacia Key Solutions: How We Work
Our mobile auto locksmith units are fully equipped for modern Dacia immobiliser systems. Here’s how we fix your issue at the roadside, at home, or at work:
- Diagnose and secure
- Verify ownership and run a quick security check.
- Assess the problem: lost keys, lockout, fob fault, or ignition issue.
- Explain the options and costs before work begins.
- Non-destructive entry
- For lockouts, we use professional lock-picking and air-wedge techniques to open your Dacia without damage wherever possible.

- Cut and code new Dacia keys
- Cut laser or standard blades precisely from code or ECU data.
- Program the new key using OBD2 diagnostics or EEPROM methods where required.
- Synchronise remote locking and immobiliser so the new key starts the car and operates the central locking.
- For stolen keys, we remove lost keys from the system so they no longer start your vehicle.
- Key fob repair and replacement
- Replace worn buttons, cracked shells, and damaged blades.
- Test and replace coin-cell batteries, then re-sync the fob.
- If the PCB or transponder is faulty, we supply a replacement and complete key fob programming.

FAQs For Dacia Keys And Locks
Can you make a new Dacia key without the original?
Yes. We can create and program a new key from scratch using your Dacia’s immobiliser data. We access PIN and security info via OBD2 or EEPROM methods where needed, then cut and code a working key on-site.
My Dacia key fob is not responding—do I need a new one?
Not always. First, we test and replace the battery and check the buttons and casing. If the PCB or transponder is faulty, we can repair or replace the fob and complete remote key programming so it locks/unlocks and starts the car.
I’ve locked my keys in the Duster—will you damage the car opening it?
We use non-destructive entry techniques wherever possible. Our tools allow us to open Dacia doors without damage in the vast majority of cases. If a rare exception applies, we’ll explain options and get your approval first.
Can you delete lost or stolen Dacia keys from the system?
Yes. When supplying new keys, we can remove missing keys from the immobiliser memory so they no longer start the car—an important security step after loss or theft.
How fast can you make a spare Dacia key?
In many cases, the same day at your location. Timing depends on model, key type (standard, remote, or proximity), and availability. Call us for an accurate timeframe for your specific vehicle.
Do you cover my area around Guildford?
Yes. We cover Guildford and GU postcodes including Merrow, Stoughton, Burpham, Godalming, Woking, Farnham, Cranleigh, and many more nearby locations. See the areas we cover across GU postcodes.
Is it cheaper and quicker than going to a dealer?
Often, yes. As a mobile service, we come to you and complete cutting and coding on-site, which typically beats dealer wait times and avoids towing. For a precise comparison, request a locksmith quote in Guildford.
