We offer a full range of mobile Audi services. Whether you need a spare, a replacement for a lost key, programming, or an ignition repair, we handle it at your location.
Lost, stolen, or broken your only Audi key? We cut and program a new key for any model, from older flip keys to modern keyless smart keys — including "all keys lost" jobs. See our lost car key replacement service.
A spare Audi key is a sensible, lower-cost backup that saves you from being stranded later. We cut and program spares while your original still works. See our replacement car keys service.
Every modern Audi key needs pairing to the car’s immobiliser to start the engine. We program Audi flip keys, remote keys, and keyless smart keys with dealer-grade equipment, so only your new key works.
Worn buttons, a cracked case, or a dead remote don’t always mean a new key. We repair Audi fobs — and replace the battery or re-house the electronics — on-site. The flip-key hinge is a common weak point we fix. See our key fob repair service.
A bent, worn, or snapped Audi key can often be repaired rather than replaced — cheaper and quicker. If it’s beyond repair, we’ll cut a new one. See our car key repair service.
If your key won’t turn, sticks, or the ignition feels worn — a well-known issue on the A3 in particular — the barrel is usually the cause. If the steering lock is jammed and the key won’t turn, that’s almost always the ignition barrel too. See our ignition barrel repair service.
Two of the most common Audi faults we’re called to: a key that won’t turn (usually a worn barrel or worn key) and a key that isn’t detected by the car (an immobiliser, transponder, or programming issue). We diagnose which it is on-site and fix it — whether that’s an ignition repair, a re-programme, or a new key.
We supply, cut, program, and repair keys for the full Audi range, including:

Audi has used several key systems over the years, and we handle them all:
We’re usually with you within 30 minutes — call for a price before we set off.
Audi main dealers are among the most expensive places to replace a key — a single replacement can cost significantly more than you’d expect, and they’ll usually want the car brought in. We do the same work at your home or workplace, with dealer-grade equipment that programs Audi keys properly to the immobiliser, typically at a fraction of the dealer price. You get a genuine, fully working key without the dealer wait or markup.
Audi key prices depend on the model and key type — an older flip key is simpler and cheaper than a keyless smart key for a new Q5 or A6. We’re typically well below main-dealer prices and we come to you. Every quote includes the call-out and labour and is confirmed before we begin — no hidden extras.
A few things affect the exact price: the type of key (flip, keyless, or transponder), the cutting and programming involved, your model and year, and whether it’s a spare or all-keys-lost job. See our full pricing page, or call with your model and year for an accurate quote.
We provide mobile Audi key and ignition services across Greater London, Kent, Essex, Surrey, and Sussex — including London, Dartford, Maidstone, Bromley, Croydon, Grays, and the surrounding towns. See our service area page for the full list, or just call and we’ll confirm we cover you.
A spare or replacement Audi key starts from £79, depending on your model and the key type. We confirm the full price, including call-out and labour, before we start — usually well below main-dealer cost.
Yes. "All keys lost" is a job we do regularly on Audis — we program a new key from the vehicle, so you don’t need an existing key. We’ll need your V5C or proof of ownership and photo ID.
Yes. We program Audi flip keys, remote keys, and keyless smart keys using dealer-grade equipment, at your location.
Usually a worn ignition barrel or a worn key — a known issue on the A3. We diagnose it on-site and repair or replace the barrel, cutting a new key if needed.
In most cases, yes — often significantly. We use dealer-grade equipment to program keys properly, come to you, and confirm the price before we start, with no dealer markup.
No. We’re fully mobile and come to you — at home, at work, or at the roadside. We don’t tow your vehicle.
