🏁 Introduction
Losing your Range Rover key can be stressful — especially with the latest smart key and push-to-start systems. Whether your fob is missing or no longer works, this 2025 guide from Auto Keyz explains every step of replacing a lost Range Rover key in the UK: what to do, how long it takes, and the safest, most cost-effective way to get back on the road.
🔍 Can You Replace a Lost Range Rover Key?
Yes — but only with the right equipment.
Modern Range Rovers use encrypted keys programmed to your specific vehicle’s immobiliser, meaning you can’t just buy a blank key online and expect it to work.
You have three main options for replacement:
- Main Dealer – Reliable but slow (5–10 days) and requires vehicle transport.
- Mobile Auto Locksmith (Best Option) – Comes to you, same-day service, and up to 50% cheaper on average.
- Online Key Cutters – Cheap but often lack correct programming; not recommended for modern vehicles.
⚙️ How a Replacement Range Rover Key Is Made
At Auto Keyz, we use dealer-level diagnostic tools to safely program new keys for Range Rover models from 2010 to 2025.
Here’s how the process works:
- Verification – Confirm ownership with ID and V5C logbook.
- Data Reading – Our diagnostic tools securely access your vehicle’s immobiliser data via the OBD port.
- Key Cutting – A new key is laser-cut to your exact lock code.
- Programming – The new key or smart fob is paired with your vehicle’s ECU and immobiliser.
- Testing – Locking, unlocking, and start/stop functions are fully tested.
Every key is coded specifically to your vehicle — never cloned or copied from another car.
💷 How Much Does It Cost to Replace a Range Rover Key?
Replacement costs depend on the model and year.
Main dealer pricing in 2025 typically ranges from £800 to £2,000, depending on vehicle and key type.
At Auto Keyz, we offer same-day mobile service that’s on average 50% cheaper than main dealers, without the need to tow your vehicle.

To ensure a smooth and secure process, please have:
