When You Need a Volvo Auto Locksmith
Volvo vehicles use advanced immobiliser systems and encrypted keys. When things go wrong, it can be stressful—especially if you’re stuck away from home or on the school run. Common situations we solve daily:
- Lost or stolen Volvo keys and need a new key cut and programmed on the spot
- Locked keys in the car or in the boot, including deadlocked vehicles
- Key snapped in the door or ignition, or a worn-out key blade that won’t turn
- Volvo key fob not working, battery replaced but still no response
- Car won’t start; “key not found” or key symbol showing on the dash
- Remote central locking problems, intermittent unlocking, or range issues
- Ignition or door lock faults on older Volvo models
If you’re unsure what’s wrong, we can diagnose at roadside with OBD2 and Volvo-specific tools to pinpoint whether it’s a key, transponder, immobiliser, lock, or ignition issue.
Our Volvo Auto Locksmith Services
We cover the full range of car key and lock services for Volvo drivers in South West London. All work is carried out by experienced, DBS-checked technicians and backed by guarantees.
Volvo Car Key Replacement
Lost every key or need an extra spare? We supply, cut, and program replacement Volvo keys for popular models including XC40, XC60, XC90, V40, V60, V90, S60, S90, and older lines. We handle:
- Standard remote keys and flip keys
- Smart/proximity keys for push-to-start models
- High-security and laser-cut key blades
We can create a new key from scratch even if you’ve lost the original. For many models we retrieve the required data via OBD2; on some late-model or all-keys-lost scenarios we use advanced EEPROM and ECU/immobiliser programming techniques as required.
For more detail on options, see our car key replacement South West London service.
Volvo Car Key Programming
A transponder is a tiny chip inside your key that talks to your Volvo’s immobiliser. If the chip isn’t recognised, the car won’t start. We offer:
- Transponder and remote key programming for Volvo models
- Smart key programming and proximity key pairing
- ECU/immobiliser programming and sync
- Keyless entry programming and fob replacement
We use dealer-level diagnostics and secure procedures designed for Volvo platforms. Learn more about our Car Key Programming.
Non-Destructive Volvo Vehicle Unlocking
Locked out of your Volvo? We provide a careful, non-destructive entry service wherever possible, using specialist tools that protect your locks, weather strips, and airbags. We’ll never drill or damage a lock unless there’s no viable alternative, and we’ll always explain options before proceeding. Explore our car unlock service South West London.
Volvo Key Fob Repair And Battery Replacement
If your key fob has stopped working or works intermittently:
- Battery testing and replacement
- Button and circuit repairs where cost-effective
- Re-housing worn shells and key blade replacement
If repair isn’t viable, we can provide a new fob and handle programming.

FAQs For Volvo Keys And Locks
Can you make a new Volvo key if I’ve lost all keys?
Yes. We can generate a new key from your Volvo using secure programming methods. Depending on the model and year, we may connect via OBD2 or use EEPROM/ECU programming. We’ll confirm the best approach when you call.
Will you damage my Volvo when unlocking it?
Our vehicle unlocking is non-destructive wherever possible. We use specialist entry tools and techniques designed for modern Volvo door and locking systems. If a component is already damaged or there’s no non-destructive option, we explain everything and get your approval first.
How long does Volvo key programming take?
Simple spare key programming can be relatively quick; all-keys-lost or proximity keys can take longer due to security access and data procedures. We’ll provide a realistic timescale after diagnostics on your model.
Can you fix a Volvo key fob that isn’t responding?
Often yes—sometimes it’s just a battery or a worn button cell holder. If the circuit is faulty, we may repair or replace the fob and then program it to your car. See more under key fob not working.
Is your work guaranteed?
Yes. Our workmanship is guaranteed, and new keys/remotes supplied by us come with a warranty. We’re insured and our team is DBS-checked.
Is it cheaper than going to a Volvo dealer?
In many cases, yes—especially when you consider towing and wait times. As a mobile service, we come to you and complete cutting/programming on-site. For a tailored estimate, view our guide to auto locksmith prices in South West London.
