I lost both my keys to my car. Don't be like me. But if you find yourself faced with the grim reality of a vehicle that turned itself into a brick without a working key, call Preston. He was able to come out very quickly, cut a new key for my VW, paired the keyless entry, and adapted the immobilizer in about 30 minutes. He charged half what the dealership would have in my case - which is an exceedingly fair price. read more

After contacting several locksmith companies, by far, this is the best company I found. They were responsive, professional, reliable, and reasonably priced. It was ridiculous the price range other companies quoted me for their services, ranging from $160-$500. I provided my own key fob that I found on eBay, and I'll I needed was to have it cut and programmed to have it as a spare. They drove to my work location and took only 20 minutes to get the job done. Also, they kept their word on their very first quote they gave when I first inquired. Excellent company to do business with. And even though they specialize in European cars, they were able to do my Acura. I am not surprised at all for their high 5 star reviews. I'm so glad I found them. read more

Holy cow.......this guy is AMAZING. He re-keyed and fixed my key fob on my 2012' Lamborghini Gallardo and he did it in 10 min. No joke, I called over 20 local locksmiths in the area and "NOT ONE" stated that they could do it. Preston, from "European Car Keys", came through. This guy is smart, he's definitely in the loop as far as technology. But, here's the icing on the cake....he charged me a ridiculously low rate....so low that I gave him a $100 tip....he earned it. Thanks Preston, to the only locksmith in Sacramento that came through! Peace read more

European Car Keys - My 2012' Lamborghini Gallardo. - Keys & Locksmiths Near Me

I bought a new retro style key fob that looks like the newer BMW key fob on Amazon for my 2003 530i and I needed the key blade cut and the key programmed. I contacted a hand full of companies on Yelp. Some didn't respond or couldn't do it, but European Car Keys said they can. Preston is the owner that came out and did it for me. Price is competitively good compared to others in my experience. We set the time for 2:30pm but he was stuck in a traffic jam coming from another job and said he be there at 2:50pm and he was spot on! He stated the job can take up to an hour but it took 2 hours. He was having issues with his system not detecting the immobilizer chip on the new key fob but what I came to find out; I had the chip in my room. The little chip looked like a piece of plastic but that was exactly what he was looking for and it had came with the Amazon package. Totally forgot! My fault (I knew that piece of plastic was some kind of micro-chip). Preston deserves a review every job he does. So if you're reading this and you employ him to do a job please leave a review because this young small business owner is the right person you need and he does it right! But overall he got the key cut, chip programmed to ensure the car will start, and the buttons on the new key fob programmed to the car. Attached is the pic of the new key fob I got from Amazon and the key fob in person read more

Hello all, I have to brag on Preston. This man is amazing technician! His work impeccable Quality outstanding Price unbeatable My car has been sitting for a few months as the electronic steering wheel lock has failed on my 2012 C250. You might be experiencing the same as we did, the best way to know is to professionally have it diagnosed. Periodically my car would have a short crank and no start or a no crank and no start with additionally the screen would not come on. But the tall tale sign was that the car was not making the "swoosh" sound when I insert the key into the ignition. After diagnosing it, watching several videos, mustering up the courage to do the work, and just a little luck on my side, I was able to remove the steering wheel lock. Because they are prone to failure, I decided to replace it with a Steering Wheel Lock Bypass aka wheel lock Emulator. An Emulator is a little box with a microchip in it that basically tricks the cars computer by telling it that the steering wheel lock is properly working, when in fact the steering wheel lock has been removed and replaced by the emulator. I endlessly called locksmith in my area who were unable to or unwilling to do the work. I was about to give up when I decided to call one more, I flicked my phone screen and landed on "European Car Keys" and decided to make one more call. To my surprise, Prestons answered my call within the first few rings. I explained what had happened and what I needed. To others as it did to me, might have sound like gibberis, but Preston knew exactly what I was talking. He confidently confirmed he could do the work. We scheduled an urgent same day appointment and on the weekend. Preston was here on time, properly introduced himself, professionally dressed, work truck was clean and everything in order. You'll know what I'm talking about when you see it. I showed him the car, gave him the key and with out saying more he was on the job. Preston was done in less than an hour, and he even cut and programmed 2 keys for me. The total was $350.00 card, cash, Venmo all of it. There is no one else you should go with other than "European Car Keys" and or anyone he personally recommends. Preston, from the bottom of my heart I thank you and wish blessings upon you and your family. You sir are a life saver, thank you, many times over. Best wishes, read more

European Car Keys - New key with chip - Keys & Locksmiths Near Me

Never under estimate a mobile locksmith. Total life saver. Went to hang out on the American River for the day and of course I lost my keys in the river Preston came hella quick to save the day. This guy is like Magyver with all his gadgets for making keys on the spot. It took a little longer because I told him the wrong car year and the correct car year had some crazy Japanese anti theft upgrades. Getting keys made on the spot was cheaper and faster than going to the dealership. I will highly recommend Preston European Car Keys read more

Helped create two functional keys for a R51 Pathfinder with keyless start. Both keys work, proximity lock/unlock works great. Not the original/come Nissan keys, but that was made clear, and also what I wanted; OEM Nissan keys would had increased the price of a key(just the key, not labor and programming) by almost 10x. I've been using the copied key for just over a year, no issues in starting engine, no key module-detect issues, remote lock/unlock distance works just like the original key fob, and proximity lock/unlock works at all 3 locations (front passenger, front driver, and rear hatch). read more

Needed our Mercedes and Acura keys looked at as they weren't working well. Was ready for a big expense figuring that they were aged and needing replacement or reprogramming. Luckily Preston is a talented and honest guy and was able to quickly diagnose the issue as dead batteries.

Preston was even able to replace worn out buttons on one of the keys. Super service. read more
