Important Mercedes car key fob information
Accidents happen, and not just to your vehicle itself. No matter where you are around London, you may discover that you have lost your keys, or suffered the loss or malfunction of the electronic key fob for your Mercedes. Your keys could even have become locked inside your vehicle, or snapped off in a lock or the ignition as you used it. In such situations, ask yourself one vital question:
Does the key to my Mercedes have a transponder chip?
All Mercedes models since 1995 are fitted with an immobiliser system as standard. It is linked to a small computer chip embedded in your key fob. This usually means that replacing them is a complex and time-consuming task. Dealers will almost certainly ask you to move your vehicle to their premises, which may involve a tow-truck. It usually takes about ten days for replacements to arrive, and these then have to be specially programmed for you to use.
 We can help by duplicating or replacing a Mercedes key
Thankfully, Auto Locksmiths London can provide the professional help you need at the roadside, at any time of the day or night. Once you call, no matter where you are in London, if you are in difficulty an experienced member of our specialist team can soon be at your side. We can provide Mercedes key programming services and replacement key fobs for any vehicle that uses the standard infra-red smart key system. It doesn't matter whether your key is of standard black plastic, with either two or three buttons, or one of the more recent chrome fobs.
We can also help in those situations where your key is locked in your vehicle. Our locksmiths can retrieve it without causing any damage. If it has snapped in a door or the ignition barrel, or become too worn or damaged to function properly, again our team can offer immediate help. Help is also available in the form of key programming if your remote fob has become desynchronised and requires diagnostic equipment to make it functional again.
We do also recommend that you have us organise an extra key, so that you don't have to experience the same problem in the future. The good news is that you can expect to pay much less than a dealership which is likely to charge for solving the problem.
If this situation ever happens to you there is no need to hang around for hours, missing important appointments, meetings or social events. No having to leave your car and arrangeing for alternative transport.
The answer is simple, give Auto Locksmiths London a call on 07788 448 816 and our expert problem-solving technicians will get you back on the road much quicker than you would ever expect!
