BMW 5 Series Keys Through The Generations

BMW 5 Series key replacement starts with identifying the car and its key type. The E39, from approximately 1995–2003, uses a bladed key. E60/E61 cars from around 2003–2010 moved to a slot key. These generations use EWS and CAS respectively, making the registration more useful than a description of the badge alone.

F10/F11 models, roughly 2010–2017, and G30/G31 cars, around 2017–2023, use remote or comfort access keys. Some G30 versions may have a display key; we will confirm the details for your car. If you are asking about a 5 Series key fob, mention which version you currently have. Wider coverage is set out on our BMW manufacturer page.

What If Every 5 Series Key Has Gone?

Our lost car key service includes work at the vehicle across these generations. G30 BDC models are included, not restricted to spare-key enquiries. Tell us the registration and where the car is parked so we can discuss the job and quote before travelling.

At your parked car

Your car's current stop can be our meeting point: home, work, a roadside spot or a car park. The 5 Series key programming work is completed there. You do not need a surviving key for us to consider the job, and we check V5C ownership evidence alongside photo ID before making a replacement.

Clear terms before attendance

There is no upfront payment. If the work proves different from the original enquiry, you hear the revised price before deciding whether to proceed. Decline that revision and there is no call-out charge. Our mobile service operates from 8am to 11pm throughout the week.
