How to Get a Citroen Replacement Key

It's not an easy task to replace the car key, especially if it's been lost. It is necessary to contact an authorized locksmith in your area or a dealership to purchase a replacement.

But, it could cost you a significant amount of money. It is possible to avoid this by using a service like SR Key Solutions.

Key Cutting

Your keys are crucial to your daily life, and when they're lost, it could cause a major inconvenience. Luckily, Ace Hardware offers hassle-free key cutting services that can help you get back on track.

We provide both regular and high-security key duplication. For standard keys we employ an instrument for cutting keys that can duplicate mortise keys or cylinder keys. The key is put in a vise and cut with a blade, then the new key is deburred--scrubbed with a wire brush that is built inside the machine or using a bench grinder to remove any burrs that may be sharp and cause damage to the lock.

When it comes to high-security keys, you need a special machine designed to cut these types of keys. This machine is more expensive, but also very accurate. It is recommended to bring the original key with you when getting these keys cut because variations in the shape of the key could make it unusable.

We use Framon 2 manual originating machines that are regarded as the most stable and accurate in the business. Some users have told tales of them falling off their work benches to the ground and being perfectly fine. We also have Silca Matrix high-security duplicators and Silca Swift.

Transponder Programming

If your Citroen has transponders, you will require a programed key to the system. This is because the transponder chip is unique to each car, and in the event that a different key is utilized, the computer on board will not recognise the serial number and therefore cannot allow the engine to start.

Normally when a car's key is lost the owner will head to the local dealer to obtain a replacement and then have it programmed to the vehicle. This can take anywhere between two to five working days, and the original key will be required.

However you can cut down on the cost by buying keys from an auto locksmith. They can program and cut the key, allowing you to start your car with a fresh key. You'll save time as well as money by not waiting for the dealer to arrive.

Making a spare key is relatively easy and can be made on the spot in just a few minutes for citroen car key models prior to 2000. The manufacturer has recently added a PIN to an actual "security card" which is about the size of an ordinary credit card that is kept in the wallet of the owner. This needs to be retrieved from the vehicle before we can program the new key. This is something we can easily do for you and again you'll avoid a trip to your dealer.

Door Lock Repair

When the key or lock are damaged, it can cause issues locking, unlocking and starting your vehicle. We can fix the ignition barrel or lock at your home for a fraction of what citroen ds3 key fob dealers charge. We can also create spare keys in case yours have been lost or stolen.

Since all Citroens were not equipped with transponder chips prior 1998, making keys is a straightforward procedure that can be completed at the site in just a few minutes. Since 1998, all models need a code which is stored on a plastic "security card' that is about the size a credit card and placed in the wallet of the owner. We can quickly obtain this code and add the replacement Citroen key to your van for you.

Often the issue with these modern keys is that the key fob is out of sync' with the car. Our vans are equipped to re-synchronize the key and get you back on the road quickly. You can save as much as 50% off the cost of Citroen dealer services.

Ignition Barrel Repair

Modern cars have a key that goes through a series of motions to start. If this process is interrupted by the key being jammed or damaged to the barrel of the ignition, the car will not start. It can be difficult to remove a broken or stuck key from the ignition. This task should be done by an expert. Our specialists can remove your keys without causing damage to your car using tools and the lubricant.

With time, the key and tumblers within the ignition cylinder can wear out making it difficult or impossible to turn your car keys. A heavy keychain can make the issue worse because it puts extra pressure on the tumblers. This is why we suggest that you have your citroen dispatch remote key replacement keys and cylinders examined by our experts before they become unusable.
