WHICH SEAT KEY DO YOU NEED REPLACED?
Whether you own one of the latest Seat models, or your car is pre-1995, we can help. What you should know, however, is that if your car was manufacturer after 1995, then your car key will have what’s known as a transponder chip inside. Because of this, we will need to utilise some of the most cutting-edge tools in order to cut, and ultimately re-programme your key. For example, the Seat Leon key is comprised of three intricate steps which are needed in order to duplicate the exact matching key. No matter which of our Seat key services you provide, we have you covered.

HOW DO SEAT KEYS WORK?
All cars after 1995, by law, will contain an ECU and a transponder chip within the car key. This is the same with Seat cars. Regardless of how basic your car key may seem, even if it doesn’t have any buttons or a battery, it will still contain a small chip that is coded to the engine of your Seat Vehicle. The chip is passive and therefore doesn’t need a battery to function. The way this extra security system works, is that whenever you introduce your key in the ignition, the ECU will search for a specific code embedded in the chip. This code will control whether the car switches on or turns off, and if the chip is not present, the engine will be cut off within 5 seconds. This makes it normally impossible to bypass, override or remove a Seat immobiliser and still drive the vehicle.
However, it is important to know that if you have bought a key second-hand off the internet, then this will not start your car. This is because the chip within the key will not have been programmed to the car. If you’re in need of a programming service, then our expert Seat key technicians can help.

WHAT IS THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN THE DEALER & CAR KEYS SOLUTIONS?
When it comes to needing a car key replacement, many people will turn to their Seat dealership. However, this is usually the far more expensive option, and customers tend to wait around 10 working days as the correct Seat car key will need to be ordered in from abroad. On top of this, most customers have to tow their vehicle up to two times to the dealer, before they are provided with their new key. Then the key will need to be reprogrammed to the car at an extra cost. With Car Keys Solutions however, we can cut, program and produce your Seat car key replacement immediately, on the spot, no matter where you are located. On top of this, we will aim to be with you within an hour.
