Situations we get called to in Elsternwick
Real calls, real streets. If one of these sounds like your day, we can fix it at the car.

Yes. For most cars we can create a brand new key on site, even when every key is lost. Have your ID and proof of ownership ready.
It depends on the key type. A basic cut key costs less than a transponder key, and proximity smart keys sit at the top of the range. Whether a working key remains also matters. Call 0410 380 354 with your make, model and year and we will give you a clear price before we head your way.
Usually, yes. A dealership generally needs the car towed in and can take days to order and code a key. We come to your vehicle, cut and program the key on site in a single visit, and you skip the tow entirely.

Often, yes. A flat battery is the most common cause and is a quick, inexpensive fix. If the remote still fails with a fresh battery, the fob may need reprogramming or a replacement, and we can do either at your vehicle.
