Subaru key replacement in Northland
Lost your Subaru keys, or want a spare before you do? We cut and program Subaru keys on site, anywhere in Northland.
Legacy, Outback, Forester and Impreza are popular here for the roads and the weather. Later cars use push-button start, so a flat key battery can look exactly like a flat car battery.
What we see on Subaru keys
Outbacks and Foresters that spend their lives on gravel and at trailheads, plus a steady run of Legacy imports. On the push-button-start cars the most common call is not a lost key at all - it is a flat key battery.
Models we are asked for most: Outback, Forester, Impreza, XV, Legacy and WRX. If yours is not among them, ring anyway - the list is what comes up often, not a limit.
Worth knowing: If your Subaru will not start and the dash is lit up, try holding the key fob against the start button before assuming the worst. Most push-to-start cars have a backup position, and the handbook shows where.
What we can do with a Subaru
- Cut a key to match the ignition when a previous repair has left you with two different keys.
- Replace a key that has been through the wash, which is more common than any of us would like.
- Cut and program a spare while you still have a working key - much the cheapest way to do this.
One key is a risk, not a saving. If your Subaru has never had a spare, the day the last key goes is the day it becomes an expensive problem instead of a small one. Cutting a second key now is the cheapest job on this page.
There is no shop to drive the Subaru to, which is fortunate given you cannot open it. Have the model, the year, whether it is an import and whether a working key still exists ready when you ring - the four things we always ask - along with photo ID and proof the vehicle is yours.
Other makes we cut and program
Lockouts, transponders and what we need from you are all covered on the automotive locksmith page. If your Subaru still has one working key and you simply want a second, that is key cutting and spares.

Questions
Subaru keys - your questions
Can you make a Subaru key if I have lost all of them?
In most cases yes, and at the vehicle rather than at a dealership. It is a bigger job than duplicating from an existing key, so it costs more - but it very rarely means a tow. Ring with the model and year and we will tell you honestly what is involved for your Subaru.
Is a locksmith cheaper than the dealer?
Usually, and more convenient, because there is no tow and no booking a week out. There are a few models where a dealer genuinely is the right answer - and we will tell you that on the phone rather than after driving out to you.
