Our Nissan Key & Ignition Services
We offer a full range of mobile Nissan services. Whether you need a spare, a replacement for a lost key, programming, or an ignition repair, we handle it at your location.
Nissan Replacement Keys
Lost, stolen, or broken your only Nissan key? We cut and program a new key for any model, from older transponder keys to modern I-Key smart fobs — including "all keys lost" jobs. See our lost car key replacement service.
Nissan Spare Keys
A spare Nissan key is a sensible, lower-cost backup that saves you from being stranded later. We cut and program spares while your original still works — often by cloning. See our replacement car keys service.
Nissan Key Programming
Every modern Nissan key needs pairing to the car’s immobiliser to start the engine. We program transponder, remote, and I-Key keyless smart keys with dealer-grade equipment, so only your new key works.
Nissan Key Fob Repair
Worn buttons, a cracked case, or a dead remote don’t always mean a new key. We repair Nissan fobs — and replace the battery or re-house the electronics — on-site. See our key fob repair service.
Nissan Key Repair
A bent, worn, or snapped Nissan 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.
Nissan Ignition Barrel Repair
If your key won’t turn, sticks, or the ignition feels worn — a common fault on the Qashqai and Micra — the barrel is usually the cause. We repair or replace the barrel and cut a matching key on-site. 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.
Key Won’t Turn or Isn’t Detected?
Two of the most common Nissan 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.
Nissan Cars & Vans We Cover

Nissan Key Types We Work With
Nissan has used several key systems over the years, and we handle them all:
- Transponder (chipped) keys — fitted to most Nissans since the late 1990s, needing programming to the immobiliser.
- Remote flip keys — the familiar fold-out blade keys used across the Qashqai, Juke, and Micra range.
- Nissan I-Key (keyless smart keys) — proximity fobs on newer Qashqai, Juke, and X-Trail models with push-button start.
- Older non-remote keys — simple transponder keys on classic Nissan models.
Stuck with your Nissan right now?
We’re usually with you within 30 minutes — call for a price before we set off.
Nissan Navara & Van Owners
Nissan vans and pickups are vehicles we’re called out to often. Worn ignition barrels, keys that won’t turn, and lost-key situations are all common on higher-mileage Navaras and NV-series vans — and being stuck means lost work. We carry the equipment to cut and program Nissan van keys and repair or replace van ignition barrels at your location, so your van is back on the road the same day wherever possible.
How Much Does a Nissan Key Cost?
Nissan key prices depend on the model and key type — an older transponder key is simpler and cheaper than an I-Key smart fob for a new Qashqai or X-Trail. 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 (transponder, remote, or I-Key), 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.

Frequently Asked Questions
How much does a replacement Nissan key cost?
A spare or replacement Nissan 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.
Can you make a Nissan key if I’ve lost all of mine?
Yes. "All keys lost" is a job we do regularly on Nissans — 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.
Can you program a Nissan I-Key / keyless smart key?
Yes. We program Nissan transponder, remote, and I-Key keyless smart keys using dealer-grade equipment, at your location.
My Nissan Qashqai key won’t turn — what’s wrong?
Usually a worn ignition barrel or a worn key — a known issue on the Qashqai and Micra. We diagnose it on-site and repair or replace the barrel, cutting a new key if needed.
Do you do Nissan Navara and NV van ignition barrels?
Yes — worn van ignition barrels are one of our most common jobs. We repair or replace the barrel and cut a matching key on-site.
Do I need to bring my Nissan to you?
No. We’re fully mobile and come to you — at home, at work, or at the roadside. We don’t tow your vehicle.
