Acura Keys Cut and Programmed at Your Car in the Lehigh Valley
We replace Acura keys on site, wherever the car is parked. That covers the Integra, TL, TSX, MDX and RDX, along with most other models. Our van carries the cutting machine and the programmer, so the whole job happens in your driveway or parking lot. It is one of the car key replacement services we do most.
A lost Acura key usually means a tow to the dealer and a wait for parts. We skip the tow. Tell us the year and model when you call, and we bring the matching key blank or fob with us. Most Acura jobs are finished the same day.
Acura moved to laser-cut keys earlier than most brands. The cut runs down the side of the blade as a groove, and a standard hardware store machine can’t copy it. We carry a high-security cutter built for that style of key.
Newer models such as the MDX and RDX use a push-to-start smart key. We program those too, and we can pair a replacement remote if only the buttons have stopped working. More on that is on our key fob replacement page.
Find your Acura key
Pick the year and model to see which key your Acura takes. Each listing shows the key type, the transponder chip, the remote’s FCC ID, the OEM part number and the Ilco key blank for Acura models from 1990 to 2025. If an Acura listing says “Call to confirm,” we haven’t confirmed that detail yet.
This Acura list is a guide only. Some Acura keys changed partway through a model year, and some Acura models take a key that isn’t listed here. Before you buy a key, call an Acura dealer with your VIN for the part number.
Lost or Stolen Acura Keys
With every key gone, we make a new one from scratch. We read the lock or pull the key code, cut the blade, then program the chip to the car. Bring a driver's license and a document that ties you to the vehicle, such as the registration or insurance card.
Most Acuras built since the late 1990s have an immobilizer. A chip in the key head sends a code to the car, and the engine won't start without the right one, even when the blade turns the ignition. That is why a hardware store copy opens the door but leaves you stuck.
If the key was stolen, ask us to erase it from the car's memory while we program the new one. The old key then can't start the engine. We can also rekey the door locks so it no longer turns in them.
Broken Acura Keys
Keep the pieces of a snapped key. We can usually read the cuts straight off the broken blade, which saves the step of decoding the lock.
If part of the blade is stuck in the ignition or door, don't dig at it. We do broken key extraction and cut the replacement on the same visit.
Call (484) 891-1922 with the year, make and model for pricing and availability. Tell us where the car is and we'll add an estimated arrival time. We travel throughout the Lehigh Valley for Acura keys. The full list of towns is on our locations page.
Acura Models We Make Keys For
The Acura models we get called for most are listed here. If your Acura is missing from the list, call with the year and model and we check availability.
Models
MDX, RDX, TL, TLX, TSX, ILX, RL, RSX and Integra.
What to have ready
We ask for the year and model, where the car is sitting, and whether any key still works. That is enough for pricing and availability on an Acura key before the van leaves. We confirm lawful possession of the car as part of the job.
Common Acura Key Questions
Can you make a spare Acura key from the one I have?
Yes. With one Acura key working, a second is cut and paired on the spot. A spare Acura key, cut from a working one, is the cheapest insurance against a lost-key call.
What if the Acura key is in the car and the doors are locked?
Then you need the door opened, not a new key. We unlock the car and you carry on. Details are on our car lockout page.
What type of key does my Acura MDX have?
The year and model answer that. Rough guide: a push-button start means a smart fob, and a twist of the key means a bladed key.
The buttons on my Acura remote stopped working, but the key still starts the car. What should I do?
Try a fresh battery first. If a new battery does not wake the Acura remote, it may need reprogramming or replacing. Our key fob page goes through it.
