BMW Car Key Replacement

Need help with a lost, damaged or spare BMW key? Immediate Access provides mobile BMW key services across Southampton and surrounding Hampshire, subject to the vehicle and key system.

BMW Key Services

BMW has used a number of key designs over the years — from older remote keys with a fold-out or fixed blade, to the slimmer remote keys and the display and comfort-access smart keys on more recent models. Each generation works differently, and not every generation or year can be handled in the same way.

We'll ask for your registration, model and year to confirm what's possible before attending. Where suitable, the work is carried out at the vehicle rather than at a dealership.

Lost BMW keys

If all keys are lost, a replacement may be possible depending on the vehicle. See lost car keys.

Replacement BMW keys

For damaged, faulty or worn keys. See car key replacement.

Spare BMW keys

An extra key for another driver or as a backup. See spare car keys.

Damaged BMW keys

Cracked cases, unresponsive buttons or worn emergency blades. See broken car keys.

BMW Key Types

Remote keys

Keys with central-locking buttons and an integrated or emergency blade. Programmed to the vehicle where supported.

Smart / comfort-access keys

Allow keyless entry and push-button start on many models. Suitability depends on the specific vehicle and system.

Programming, in brief

A new BMW key has to be registered with the car before it will start the engine and operate the locks. We do this at the vehicle where supported. More on car key programming.

Locked out?

If you can't get into your BMW, see vehicle entry.
