Mitsubishi Key Replacement Leeds
Mitsubishi key replacement in Leeds is the cutting and programming of a new transponder key, remote key or keyless smart key to the immobiliser of your Mitsubishi, carried out at the vehicle. Ian codes Texas 4D, ID46 and ID47 Mitsubishi keys on the driveway, at the roadside or on site at work, so the Outlander, L200, Shogun, ASX or Space Star never needs a recovery lorry to a garage.
Mitsubishi stopped selling new cars in the UK in 2021 and is only now returning to UK showrooms, so Leeds owners have fewer main dealer options than drivers of most makes. A mobile auto locksmith fills that gap. A replacement key costs from £85 with one working key present, and from £145 when every key is lost.
From £85, no VAT, 24/7 across every LS postcode.
How Mitsubishi Key Systems Work by Generation
A Mitsubishi key has two parts that must both match the car. The blade is cut to the locks, and the transponder chip inside the head is registered to the immobiliser. Mitsubishi has used three chip generations in UK models since 2000, and the generation decides how a Mitsubishi key is programmed and what it costs.
Texas 4D keys, about 2000 to 2006, sit in the Colt, Lancer, first Outlander, Galant and Shogun of that period. These fixed code chips are coded through the diagnostic socket once the security PIN is read. Older chip keys like these are handled by our transponder key programming service, usually in well under an hour.
Philips ID46 keys, about 2004 to 2016, are the largest Mitsubishi group on Leeds roads. The Outlander from 2007, the L200 Series 4, the Shogun from 2007, the Lancer, the Colt from 2004, the ASX to 2015 and the i-MiEV all use ID46. Bladed Mitsubishi remotes use the MIT11R blade on the Outlander, Lancer and ASX, and the MIT8 blade on the L200 and Shogun. The 2012 to 2021 Outlander and Outlander PHEV use an ID46 keyless smart key with push button start.
Hitag 3 ID47 keys, 2015 onwards, arrived with the L200 Series 5, the facelifted ASX, the Space Star and the Eclipse Cross. Most of these Mitsubishi keys are keyless proximity keys with a hidden emergency blade. Proximity keys need a different pairing routine to bladed keys, which our smart key programming page explains step by step.
Colt, Lancer, first Outlander, Galant and Shogun. Fixed code chip coded through the diagnostic socket. From £85.
Outlander, L200 Series 4, Shogun, Lancer, ASX, Colt and i-MiEV. MIT8 or MIT11R blade. The biggest Mitsubishi group in Leeds.
L200 Series 5, ASX facelift, Space Star and Eclipse Cross. Mostly keyless proximity keys with an emergency blade.
The plug-in hybrid uses the same ID46 keyless smart key as the petrol Outlander. The hybrid drivetrain does not change how the key is coded.

Mitsubishi Car Key Prices in Leeds
A Mitsubishi key in Leeds costs from £85 with one working key present and from £145 when every key is lost. Each price includes cutting, programming and testing at the vehicle, and no VAT is added. The full breakdown by job type sits in our car key replacement cost guide for Leeds.
Main dealers typically quote from around £160 plus VAT for a programmed key. For a Mitsubishi the dealer route is also slower than for most makes, because the UK aftersales network shrank to about 100 garages nationally after new sales stopped in 2021. Many Leeds owners face a long drive, or a recovery lorry, to reach one.

The price is confirmed on the phone before dispatch. No VAT on any Leeds job.
Tools Used for Mitsubishi Key Programming
Three tools cover every Mitsubishi key generation, from Texas 4D chips to Hitag 3 proximity keys. All three travel on the van, so a Mitsubishi key job starts and finishes at the vehicle.
Reads the Mitsubishi security PIN and codes Texas 4D, ID46 and ID47 keys through the diagnostic socket. Covers bladed remotes, the Outlander PHEV keyless key and the L200 Series 5 proximity key.
Used for Mitsubishi immobiliser faults and module level work where the diagnostic socket route is blocked, such as a failed key reader ring or corrupted immobiliser memory.
Cuts MIT8 and MIT11R Mitsubishi blades to code from the vehicle data. This is how a new key is made when every original key is lost and there is nothing to copy.
How a Mitsubishi Key Is Replaced On Site
Two situations cover almost every Mitsubishi key call in Leeds. The steps differ, because a spare key is added next to a working key, while an all keys lost job builds a Mitsubishi key from nothing.
One working keyless key and no spare. A spare Mitsubishi key costs far less now than an all keys lost job once the last key fails or goes missing.
The security PIN is read through the diagnostic socket. The new ID46 keyless key is registered alongside the existing key, and the emergency blade is cut on the Condor.
Two working keys, with push button start and remote locking tested at the vehicle. From £85, no VAT.
No key for an L200 parked at a work site. The ID46 immobiliser still accepts the lost keys, so anyone who finds them could drive the pick-up away.
The L200 is opened without damage. The MIT8 blade is cut to code from the vehicle data, the lost keys are deleted from the immobiliser and the new key is coded.
One working key and the lost keys disabled, usually inside the hour. From £145, no VAT. Work vehicles get the same urgency as our van key replacement service.
Mitsubishi Callouts Across Every Leeds Postcode
Ian works from Cross Gates in LS15, so east and south Leeds are reached first and the whole city is covered in about 30 minutes. L200 pick-ups are common on building sites, farms and industrial estates, where a lost key stops a working day. The Outlander PHEV is a frequent family car across the suburbs, where a spare key job is the usual call.
Every LS postcode is covered at the same price, day and night, with no call-out fee on top of the quoted Mitsubishi key price.
