Replacing a 2017 BMW 3 Series Key
The 2017 BMW 3 Series typically uses a smart proximity key (keyless remote) that unlocks the doors as you approach and enables push-to-start, and must be paired to the vehicle electronically. Chida Locksmith carries the equipment to cut and program this type of key on-site, so most BMW 3 Series owners in El Cerrito can get a working replacement without towing the vehicle to a dealership. We stock and program smart keys for most models at your location.

We confirm the correct key for your exact year and trim before we arrive so the job is done in a single visit.
