π Introduction
Being locked out of your car or losing every key can turn a good day into chaos. Modern Range Rover, Land Rover and Jaguar vehicles use advanced encrypted systems β which means quick DIY fixes rarely work.
This 2025 guide from Auto Keyz explains what to do during an emergency lockout or all-keys-lost situation, how long it takes, and how our mobile locksmiths restore access safely and securely.
π¨ What To Do First During a Lockout
- Stay calm and assess β Forcing entry can trigger alarms or damage door modules.
- Check for a spare β If another key exists, secure it; if not, donβt waste time.
- Avoid online βslim-jimβ or wedge tools β Modern JLR vehicles have anti-tamper locks and airbags near doors.
- Call an approved auto locksmith β Professionals use authorised methods to regain entry and create a new key if needed.
π‘ Auto Keyz offers 24/7 emergency call-outs for Range Rover, Land Rover and Jaguar owners.
π§ How Auto Keyz Handles Emergency Lockouts
We use advanced, non-destructive techniques to unlock and rekey your vehicle safely.
Hereβs how our emergency process works:
- Identity Verification β Youβll show ID and proof of ownership (V5C).
- Secure Entry β We decode the lock or use specialist tools designed for JLR locks.
- Key Creation (if needed) β Using OEM-grade equipment, we cut and program a new key or fob on-site.
- System Sync β Lost keys are removed from your carβs immobiliser to protect against theft.
- Final Test β Remote locking, push-start, and proximity functions are verified before handover.
β 95 % of emergency cases are completed within 1β2 hours on-site.
π When All Keys Are Lost
If every key is lost or stolen, we can:
- Access the vehicle without damage
- Extract the vehicleβs key data securely
- Program a new smart key or proximity fob
