Security And Technical Expertise For Porsche
Porsche vehicles use complex immobiliser architectures that require precise handling:
-
Transponder and proximity systems
We identify the correct transponder/chip type and remote frequency to ensure full compatibility. -
OBD2 and secure gateway access
Where permitted and supported, we access the vehicle via OBD2. For newer models with secure gateways, we follow approved authentication procedures. -
EEPROM and ECU work
When OBD2 programming isn’t possible, we may remove modules such as immobiliser or body control for EEPROM key data handling. This is done with care and reinstalled to factory standards. -
Key deletion for lost/stolen scenarios
On supported systems, we can erase missing keys from memory so they can’t start your Porsche, improving your security. -
Battery-safe procedures
We use stabilised power supplies to protect sensitive modules during programming, helping prevent data corruption.

FAQs: Porsche Keys And Locks
Can you make a Porsche key without the original?
Yes. We can cut a new key from the lock or from code and then program it to your Porsche’s immobiliser. For some models we use OBD2 diagnostics; for others we carry out EEPROM/ECU procedures. This is a mobile service across Maidstone and ME postcodes.
Will you damage my Porsche when unlocking it?
We use non-destructive entry methods wherever possible, protecting paint, glass, and seals. In rare cases where a different approach is unavoidable, we’ll explain the options and get your approval first.
How long does Porsche key programming take?
Most Porsche key programming jobs are completed in a single mobile visit. Time varies by model and procedure: OBD2-based programming is typically faster than EEPROM/ECU methods. We’ll give an accurate timescale when you contact us.
Can you delete lost or stolen Porsche keys from the car?
On supported systems, yes. We can remove missing keys from the vehicle’s memory to prevent them from starting your car, and then add new keys securely.
Do you cover Porsche Taycan and late-model 911/992 smart keys?
We support modern Porsche smart key systems and follow secure gateway protocols where applicable. Contact us with your model and year for confirmation.
Is this cheaper and faster than a Porsche main dealer?
In many cases, yes. As a mobile auto locksmith we come to you, often faster than dealer lead times, and without towing. We also avoid rekeying the entire car unless absolutely necessary. For price guidance, see our overview of auto locksmith prices in Maidstone.
