MINI keys, fobs and ignitions
MINI uses BMW key systems. Lockouts are handled on all models; key replacement depends on year, so call with your VIN.
MINI lockout
Locked out of your MINI? A technician arrives in 15–25 minutes anywhere in DC and opens it without damage. More about car lockout service.
MINI key made
If you lost your only MINI key, we cut a new one by code or by decoding the lock and program it at the car, so no tow is needed. Have your ID and registration ready. More about car key replacement.
MINI key programming
We program transponder keys, remote-head keys and push-to-start fobs for the MINI, add spares, and erase lost keys from the vehicle on request. More about key programming and key fob replacement.
MINI ignition repair and replacement
On turn-key versions of the MINI, a key that sticks or will not turn usually points to a worn key or worn ignition cylinder. We repair or replace the cylinder where the car sits and match it to your existing key when possible. Push-to-start versions have no cylinder; no-start problems there are usually the fob or its battery. More about ignition repair.
