Today, we were called out to Rainford to assist the owner of a 2006 Lexus RX350 who was looking for a spare key. The vehicle had only come with one working key, and the customer wanted a cost-effective backup option that could still start the car if the original was lost or damaged.
After a quick chat about the available options, the customer opted for a non-remote spare key. While it doesn’t have the remote locking and unlocking function, it still contains a transponder chip and is fully capable of starting the vehicle — making it a smart and budget-friendly solution for backup security.
We attended the customer’s address and used specialist key-cutting and diagnostic programming tools to create and code a new transponder key to the Lexus. The process was completed quickly and efficiently, without the need to visit a dealership or wait days for a key to be ordered in.
