What The Customer Needed

This MINI Cooper in Burley no longer had a usable working key, so a complete mobile replacement was needed at the vehicle.

Confirming the key system

At the Burley call-out, we first confirmed the key format used by this MINI Cooper and checked how its immobiliser responded. That established a sensible replacement route without assuming an exact system from the body shape alone.

Creating a key without an original

Because there was no working key to duplicate, we prepared the correct replacement for the MINI Cooper from the available vehicle information. The mechanical element was dealt with where required, followed by the appropriate immobiliser programming.

Return to use

The new MINI Cooper key was put through repeated entry and start checks before handover. It responded consistently, leaving the vehicle usable again at its Burley location.

“From start to finish fantastic service. Called them in the morning and they arrived when they said they would, very polite, explained what was wrong and fixed within the hour. Would thoroughly recommend and was also good value.”
