Volkswagen key replacement requires understanding of VW Group IMMO systems and security protocols. We specialise in helping VW owners across the UK who need keys programmed properly using correct diagnostic equipment.
Your Volkswagen has sophisticated immobiliser technology that deserves specialist attention. Generic Autel tablets have significant failure rates because they don’t properly understand VW Group architecture. We’ve invested in proper diagnostic equipment and trained our technicians specifically on VW systems.
Our mobile service covers South Wales, Bristol, Bath and the South West. We arrive within 90 minutes and complete most jobs in under an hour at your location – home, office, or roadside. No recovery needed, no lengthy dealership waits.
VW dealerships charge £300+ and make you wait several days for appointments. We deliver professional work at genuinely affordable rates, programming keys through the OBD port using proper manufacturer protocols. No IMMO removal, no risky soldering, no shortcuts.
From Polo to Passat, Golf to Tiguan and Transporter, we handle the complete VW range professionally. That’s proper Volkswagen key replacement with genuine expertise and accountability.

What Our Customers Say
“Amazing!!
Fast and super efficient”
— Sarah M., Newport
VOLKSWAGEN Transporter
“Excellent. Rang them at 10.30am not expecting a same day response. They gave a total price and said that they would be with me 2.30-3.30pm that same afternoon. They actually arrived a few minutes early and had my car going with a brand new key in less than five minutes.
On top of that, it cost much, much, MUCH less than even my local garage, let alone the main dealer.
Can’t recommend them highly enough!”
— Thomas W., Newport

⚠️ VOLKSWAGEN Programming Failure Rates
Facebook and eBay offers for VOLKSWAGEN keys at £120-150 use universal diagnostic tablets designed to work on every vehicle brand.VOLKSWAGEN Immobiliser Damage Rate: 40% with generic programming tools
While VOLKSWAGEN vehicles aren’t as complex as German luxury cars, they still suffer substantial damage from universal tablet programming. Tools like Autel, Obdstar, XTool, Lansdon and similar are marketed as working on “all vehicles,” but this broad compatibility means they use standardised sequences rather than manufacturer-specific protocols.
Main dealer immobiliser repair: £1200-£2250
Our 18-Month Data:
• 20+ vehicles repaired after universal tablet attempts
• Average customer loss: £1500
Why Universal Tools Fail: Generic tablets are designed to service hundreds of vehicle brands – European, Japanese, American, everything. This “jack of all trades” approach works adequately on some vehicles but causes significant failure rates on others. Manufacturer-appropriate diagnostic equipment reduces risk to under 5% because it uses proper protocols rather than standardised sequences.
We cover all repair costs if issues occur with our professional service (they rarely do with proper equipment).
The Pattern: Amateur with generic diagnostic tablet attempts programming, encounters errors, promises to return with “updated software,” then disappears. Your VOLKSWAGEN won’t start and requires dealer repair.
