Mobile auto key programming · Essendon North
Car keys programmed at your car
Spare keys, push-start smart keys and all-keys-lost jobs across Essendon and Melbourne's north-west. Flat $70 programming per key, fixed quote before anything is ordered.
Spare keys cost less than lost keys
If one key still works, adding a spare is the easiest and cheapest job your car will ever need. Wait until the last key is gone and the job gets harder, and sometimes needs a lockout first.
I'm Robin, a local auto key programmer based in Essendon North. I bring dealer-level programming equipment to your car and charge a flat $70 per key.
What I do
Spare & replacement keys
Bladed transponder keys, flip keys and remotes added to your car.
Push-start smart keys
Proximity keys for keyless entry and push-button start.
All keys lost
New key programmed when you have no working key left.
Car lockouts
Locked out with the keys inside? Most makes and models.
How a job runs

VIN, make, model, year and photos of your key. That tells me the exact chip, frequency and blade before I quote.
Get a fixed price
One all-up number, including travel. If your car is outside what my equipment covers, I tell you straight away.
Key is ordered
Keys and blades are ordered for your exact car. Allow 10–15 days, so book before you're down to your last key.
Programmed at your car
I come to your driveway or workplace and program through the diagnostic port. Bring your rego papers and driver licence.
