How We Work On MG Keys — Step By Step

1. Call or contact us with your MG details (model, year, VIN if available) and explain the issue.
2. We confirm likely solutions and attendance options across Kingston upon Thames and KT postcodes. Get a Free, No-Obligation Quote if you prefer an estimate.
3. Our mobile technician arrives fully equipped. We first attempt non-destructive solutions (e.g., OBD2 reprogramme, on-vehicle key learning, non-destructive entry).
4. If a new key is needed we cut precision blades (including laser-cut) and programme transponders or smart fobs using dealer-level tools and EEPROM where required.
5. We run final diagnostics to ensure immobiliser, central locking and remote functions work correctly. Workmanship and keys are covered by a 12-month warranty.

We always explain the process and costs before starting. Non-destructive methods are used wherever possible; in rare cases (severe lock damage or advanced theft protection issues) we may need to remove or replace components — we’ll seek authorisation first.

FAQs

Can you make an MG key without the original?

Yes. For most MG models we can cut a new blade and programme a transponder or smart key using OBD2/EERPROM methods and dealer-level tools. We may need the VIN or proof of ownership.

Most straightforward replacements (cutting and programming) are completed on-site within one visit. More complex ECU/EEPROM work can take longer, but we explain timing during diagnosis. For cost guidance see Affordable Auto Locksmith Prices in Kingston upon Thames.

We use non-destructive entry techniques wherever possible. If a door or lock requires component removal or drilling due to damage, we will discuss this and seek permission before proceeding.
