- Dealer-Level Diagnostics
- Using OBD2 diagnostics, we communicate with your Subaru’s immobiliser and ECU to add or remove keys.
- For certain models or all-keys-lost scenarios, we may use EEPROM techniques to securely extract data for programming.
- We can diagnose central locking and remote issues, including aerial/antenna faults in smart systems.
- Non-Destructive Entry
- Locked out? We use advanced lock-picking and bypass methods to gain access without damage wherever possible. If a rare exception applies (e.g., severely damaged lock), we’ll explain and get your consent before any invasive steps.
- Key Cutting and Programming
- We cut laser or standard blades precisely and code transponders or smart keys so your Subaru starts and locks correctly.
- We test remote locking, boot release, and comfort features before handover.

FAQs
Can you make a Subaru key without the original?
Yes. With proof of ownership, we can create a new Subaru key from code or by reading lock/immobiliser data. Our diagnostics allow us to programme a new transponder or smart key even in all-keys-lost situations.
Will you damage my Subaru when unlocking it?
Our aim is non-destructive entry in all cases. We use specialist tools and techniques designed to protect your locks, weather seals, and electronics. In rare cases where a component is already damaged or seized, we’ll explain options before any work.
How long does Subaru key programming take?
In many cases, a spare Subaru key can be cut and programmed within a single visit. All-keys-lost or complex immobiliser scenarios can take longer, especially if EEPROM work is required. We’ll give you a realistic time estimate once we confirm your model and key type.
Do you cover evenings and weekends in Harrow?
Yes. Our mobile Subaru locksmiths support urgent needs across Harrow and the HA postcode area with flexible availability, including evenings and weekends.
Can you fix a Subaru key fob that stopped working after battery change?
Often yes. Sometimes the contacts or the fob’s board need attention, or the vehicle needs the remote resynchronised. If the fob is beyond repair, we can supply and programme a replacement.
Is it better to go to a dealer for Subaru keys?
A dealer can help, but many Subaru key issues are resolved faster and more conveniently by a mobile auto locksmith with dealer-level equipment. We come to you, which is especially helpful if the car won’t start or you’re locked out.
