Porsche 911 Automotive Locksmith

The Porsche 911 was produced 1981–2027. It is a current passenger car, so parts availability is generally good and the security procedures are the current-generation ones.

This range spans the transition from mechanical keys to transponder immobilisers and, in the later years, to remote-head keys. Which applies to a particular 911 depends on its model year and trim.

On a vehicle this recent, most "key" faults turn out to be the fob battery. Before assuming a failed key, try the vehicle's backup start position — usually holding the fob against the start button or a marked point on the steering column — and see whether it starts.

Eligibility for the Porsche 911 is confirmed against the exact model year and trim before a job is treated as scheduled, and proof of identity and vehicle ownership or written authorisation is required before any key is originated or programmed.
