Identify Your Mercedes Key Type

Knowing the type of key you need is essential, as each requires a different replacement process. No matter which type of Mercedes key you have, our team has the expertise and technology to handle any replacement swiftly.
About Mercedes Keys
Mercedes began using a key system in the mid-1990s that integrated immobiliser technology with a flip-out remote, ensuring only a specifically programmed key could start the engine. These keys also used a remote signal for central locking and immobiliser deactivation, without relying on a transponder chip. This innovation greatly enhanced vehicle security across their range.
At the same time, Mercedes introduced advanced anti-theft features, such as the Electronic Ignition Switch (EIS), which stores key data, and the Electric Steering Lock (ESL), which locks the steering column to prevent theft.
Unlike many other car keys, newer Mercedes keys send an infrared signal to the EIS, which, upon recognising the signal, allows the engine to start.
In the early 2000s, Mercedes released the plastic remote key, which quickly became standard across their models. This design was later upgraded to a more stylish chrome finish, providing a sleek, modern look without compromising on functionality.

Mercedes Key Replacement
If you’ve lost or broken your Mercedes key, you know what an expensive inconvenience it can be, but there are affordable solutions available. It's not always necessary to visit a dealership, as many key specialists offer the same level of service for a selection of Mercedes Benz replacement keys. Knowing your options can save you both time and money when dealing with a lost or broken key.
We can help by cutting and programming a new key on-site. Our advanced tools ensure compatibility with your vehicle's security system.
Mercedes Spare Keys
If you’ve bought a second-hand Mercedes, you may only have one key. We offer same-day duplication for spare Mercedes keys and can erase any old keys from the system, ensuring only your keys work. Having a spare key makes future replacements easier and cheaper, giving you peace of mind if one is ever lost or damaged.
Mercedes Key Programming
If you have a Mercedes model that was manufactured after 1995, then it is likely that your Mercedes keys will have a transponder chip. Sometimes, those key chips may stop operating and will need advanced diagnostic equipment to work again. If it is beyond repair, we can program a new Mercedes key on the spot.
Always use a reputable auto locksmith. An incorrectly programmed Mercedes key will prevent the engine from starting.
Mercedes Key Repair
If your Mercedes key has cracked or chipped, has stopped operating, or is just too worn, you may need it to be repaired, rather than replaced. Our Mercedes auto locksmiths can repair keys on-site with the same-day service available.
Mercedes Ignition Switch Repair
Like any other electronic component, Mercedes electronic ignition switches can stop working. You may find yourself having problems with your Mercedes ignition switch, which has gone faulty and may need fixing.
Our technicians use the latest equipment to test and repair your car keys + EIS the same day.
We have lower prices compared to Mercedes’ dealers, which can take from 7 -10 business days, best case scenario, sometimes even months and their price is around £900 or more.
Mercedes Electronic Steering Column Lock Repair
Steering column lock failure is a common reason for not being able to start your Mercedes E Class, C Class Mercedes Sprinter or Vito. Here at Car Keys Solutions, we specialise in Mercedes steering lock repairs and can provide you with a quick diagnostic on your Mercedes non-start issue.
We offer Mercedes replacement steering column locks on a same-day service, and mobile service at your location to get you back on the road as soon as possible.

Replacement Mercedes Key: Dealership vs Car Keys Solutions
When faced with a lost or damaged Mercedes key, it’s easy to understand why your first thought would be to turn to your nearest Mercedes dealership.
However, there are a few things to consider when looking for a replacement or spare key for Mercedes:
- Vehicle Recovery and Visits. With a dealership, you’ll usually need to arrange several visits and, in most cases, pay to have your vehicle recovered to their location. Car Keys Solutions comes to you, handling everything at your vehicle’s location.
- Admin and Waiting Period. At a dealership, you will need to present several documents to order the replacement key for Mercedes and have to wait up to 10 working days.
Car Keys Solutions offers a trusted alternative. We supply Mercedes keys on the spot, including ESL replacement mobile and EIS repair and car key programming, most of the time, on the same-day.
Our services are mobile which means we can come to you, and at a fraction of the cost compared to the main dealerships.
