Porsche Key and Immobiliser Systems Explained
Modern Porsche vehicles use sophisticated immobiliser and transponder systems that require specialist programming:
- Transponder and proximity keys: Most Porsche models from the 2000s onward use transponder chips; newer models use smart/proximity keys for keyless entry and push-to-start
- ECU/Immobiliser pairing: Keys must be cryptographically matched to your car’s immobiliser and sometimes BCM (Body Control Module)
- OBD2 and EEPROM: Many keys can be programmed via OBD2 diagnostics; for selected models and situations, EEPROM work on immobiliser/BCM may be required
- Remote central locking: Porsche fobs control boot and doors; failures can be battery-related, circuit-board damage, or desync
We bring dealer-level diagnostic equipment to you, so you avoid the delay and towing cost of a main dealer.

FAQs: Porsche Keys and Immobilisers
Can you make a new Porsche key without the original?
Yes. We can generate a new key or fob without the original by reading immobiliser data via OBD2 on supported models or using EEPROM/ECU methods where necessary. We then cut and code the key so it starts the car and operates the remote locking.
Will you damage my Porsche when unlocking it?
We use non-destructive entry methods wherever possible, employing specialist tools and techniques tailored to Porsche door and boot mechanisms. In the rare event that minimal invasive work is needed, we explain it first and proceed only with your approval.
How long does Porsche key programming take?
Most replacements and programming tasks are completed in a single mobile visit. Time varies by model, year, and whether all keys are lost. We’ll advise an efficient plan during your initial call.
Can you program Porsche smart/proximity keys and Taycan keys?
We support smart/proximity keys on many Porsche models and stay current with late-model systems, including EVs like the Taycan. We’ll confirm compatibility for your specific variant and year.
Is this service cheaper and quicker than a dealer?
Typically yes. As a mobile auto locksmith in Harrow, we come to you, often same day, avoiding towing and long dealer lead times. See our guide to auto locksmith prices in Harrow and call for an accurate quote.
Do you offer spare Porsche keys?
Absolutely. We can cut and programme a spare during the same visit, which is usually more cost-effective than a future emergency callout.
