BMW Car Keys in Eastleigh

BMW takes vehicle security seriously, and that shows in the keys. Most models use an integrated remote with a removable blade inside, and later cars add Comfort Access keyless entry. Some recent and high-spec models can only be handled with equipment that main dealers keep to themselves — if that applies to yours, you will be told straight rather than quoted for work that cannot be done.

BMW keys we supply and program

Integrated remote keys

The standard BMW key: buttons for locking and boot release, with an emergency blade that slides out for the door lock. A replacement is cut and programmed so both halves work together, exactly as the original did.

Comfort Access keyless fobs

Cars equipped with keyless entry and start detect the fob rather than reading a blade. Where the vehicle supports it, a replacement fob is programmed for full keyless operation, and the concealed blade is cut to the locks.

Older EWS-era keys

Earlier BMWs use a different immobiliser generation, and those keys are typically straightforward to source and program — often among the easier premium keys to deal with.

Common BMW key jobs

• All keys lost — a new key created from the vehicle where the model allows it.
• A second key for a shared car, programmed at your address.
• A fob that has stopped being detected by a Comfort Access car.
• Broken key shells and worn buttons, where a repair or re-shell keeps the original electronics.
• Keys locked inside the car — see vehicle entry.

Information needed to quote
