If you need Subaru key replacement or Subaru key programming in Uxbridge, our mobile auto locksmiths are here to help fast. We handle everything from emergency vehicle unlocking to spare keys for modern Subaru models, using dealer-level diagnostics and non-destructive methods wherever possible across the UB postcode area.
When You Need A Subaru Auto Locksmith
Subaru owners call us for a range of situations. If any of these sound familiar, we can help promptly in Uxbridge and nearby:
- Lost Subaru keys or stolen keys and no spare
- Locked keys in your Subaru (boot or cabin)
- Key snapped in the door lock or ignition
- Subaru key won’t turn or the ignition feels stiff
- Key fob not responding, intermittent locking, or “Key not detected” on push-to-start models
- Dead car key battery or worn key blade

We support popular Subaru models including Impreza, Legacy, Outback, Forester, XV/Crosstrek, BRZ, Levorg, and Ascent (import). Whether you drive a classic key-blade Subaru or a newer smart key (proximity/push-button start), we’ve got the tools and training to get you moving.
Subaru Car Key Replacement And Programming
Losing your only Subaru key is stressful, but you don’t need a tow to the dealer. As a mobile car locksmith, we create and program new Subaru keys at your location across Uxbridge and the UB postcodes.
- Transponder key programming: Most Subaru keys contain a small chip (transponder) that talks to your car’s immobiliser. We pair new chips using OBD2 diagnostics or, where required, EEPROM techniques on the bench.
- Smart key programming: We add or delete proximity fobs for push-to-start Subarus, resolving “key not detected” issues and supplying replacement fobs.
- Key cutting and duplication: Laser-cut and standard blades cut precisely to manufacturer specs; we can clone or program a second key for convenience.
- ECU/immobiliser programming: Where the immobiliser needs reset or synchronisation, we use dealer-level equipment to complete the job securely.
- Key fob repair and replacement: Fix worn buttons, cracked cases, or supply a complete new remote if electronics have failed.
If your Subaru key has stopped working suddenly, we test the fob, battery, and vehicle response, then advise the quickest, most cost-effective route back to normal.

FAQs: Subaru Keys And Locks
Can you make a Subaru key without the original?
Yes. We can cut and program a new Subaru key from the vehicle using dealer-level diagnostics. Depending on model and year, this may involve OBD2 programming or, for certain immobiliser systems, EEPROM procedures. We’ll advise the best route when you call.
Do I need to tow my Subaru to the dealer for a new key?
No. Our mobile Subaru locksmith service comes to you in Uxbridge and the UB area, providing key cutting and programming on-site. This is often quicker and more convenient than booking a dealer appointment and arranging transport.
Can you program Subaru proximity/smart keys?
Yes. We supply and program smart keys for push-to-start models (e.g., Outback, Forester, XV, Levorg, BRZ), pairing them with your immobiliser and testing all functions. We can also delete lost/stolen fobs from the system for security.
Will you damage my Subaru when unlocking it?
We use non-destructive entry methods wherever possible, with specialist tools designed for Subaru locks and frameless or tight-seal doors. If a component failure prevents safe non-destructive entry, we’ll explain the options before any work.
How long does it take to get a new Subaru key?
Most standard transponder keys and many smart keys are completed during a single visit. Timing varies by model, year, and whether immobiliser data access is required. We’ll give you a clear time estimate after an initial assessment.
Can you fix a Subaru key fob that stopped working?
Often yes. We test the battery and electronics, repair or replace the shell/buttons, and reprogram where necessary. If the fob has failed beyond repair, we supply and program a replacement.
