Volkswagen Key Services

The VW flip key is one of the most recognisable car keys on the road — and one of the most frequently repaired. The hinge, blade and buttons all take a lot of use, so we regularly see worn or broken VW keys alongside lost ones.

Volkswagen has used several generations of key and immobiliser technology across its range, and newer models may offer keyless entry and start. The right approach depends on the model, generation and year.

Lost VW keys

Depending on the vehicle, a new key may be made on site without the original. See lost car keys.

Replacement & spare keys

Damaged flip keys

Snapped blades, loose hinges and worn buttons. See broken car keys.

Vehicle entry

Keys inside your Golf or Transporter? See keys locked in car.

VW Key Technology

Remote & transponder keys

Most VW keys combine a blade, an immobiliser chip and remote locking. Each needs setting up on a new key.

Keyless / proximity

Available on many newer VWs. Whether a key can be added depends on the specific system.

Programming

New keys are programmed to the vehicle where supported. See car key programming.

VW vans

Caddy, Transporter and Crafter keys for trades and fleets. See van keys.

Related Volkswagen Group Brands

Volkswagen shares parts of its technology with Audi, SEAT and Skoda. That doesn't mean their keys are interchangeable or that every system works the same way — each vehicle is checked individually.

  • Registration, model and approximate year
  • Key type — flip, remote or keyless
  • Whether you have a working key
  • Vehicle location

We may need proof of ownership or authority to access the vehicle before carrying out key or entry work.
