Replacing a 2018 Acura ILX Key
The 2018 Acura ILX 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 Acura ILX owners in San Pablo can get a working replacement without towing the vehicle to a dealership. We stock and program smart keys for most models at your location.
