Replacement Keys

It is recommended that you contact an experienced auto locksmith if you've lost the only Citroen key you have and need an alternative. It will save you time and money. You'll need to bring your vehicle to the dealership, and present your identification documents to receive a replacement key. The key will be delivered between two and five business days. You'll have to go back to the dealership to have your replacement Citroen keys programmed. This can be time-consuming and expensive.

There are various kinds of Citroen keys, based on the model and year your vehicle is. Some models use an electronic key fob that opens the door at the distance, whereas others require you to insert it into the ignition to start the engine. These keys come with a transponder, which allows them to communicate with your car. The embedded chip in the key must be programmed to work with your specific car.

A mobile technician will travel to you to resynchronize your key to your vehicle. They'll have the diagnostic equipment that is needed for this job and they won't cost you as much as a dealership would.

Transponder Chips

Transponder chips inside your keys are designed to prevent your vehicle from being hot-wired. This is a popular method used by thieves to steal vehicles. If you own keys with chip, it will disable your immobilizer if the incorrect key was used to start the car. This technology is very effective in preventing car theft.

The transponder chips on your citroen keys could be out of sync with your car at times, so it's important to secure them. A mobile locksmith can reprogram keys when it's stolen or lost by using the equipment they have in their van. You'll pay much less for this service than at a dealership.

A transponder key can make life easier for you in case you enjoy kayaking fishing, or surfing. This kind of key is able to be put on your surfboard or fishing pole if you don't want to carry a steel key with you.

Keys lost or stolen

The best method to avoid losing your Citroen keys is to keep a spare safe. If you have a difficult recalling where you keep things, consider putting the spare key in an area that is easy to spot (like on your keychain). If you find it difficult to remember where you have put items, consider purchasing the keyring in a striking color or pattern.

Citroen vans and cars prior to 1997 did not utilize transponders, so creating an extra can be done at the site. From 1998 all vehicles will be equipped with transponders that need to be programmed into the chassis. This requires specialized equipment.

If your Citroen car or van keys have been lost or stolen you will need to visit the dealer with your V5 and ID to order replacement keys. They could take up to five days to arrive and have to be programmed into your vehicle before they are able to be used. The Keylab can cut and program replacement keys for you in a fraction of the time that it takes the dealership, and at a cheaper price.
