Does Lamborghini use transponder keys?

transponder keys Lamborghini started using sidewinder transponder keys in 2001 and most vehicles adopt the use of transponder keys. The Lamborghini A4 is an exception which did not had transponders until 2002.


In 2006 few models started using the keyless device based on the Keyless Entry & Keyless Start (KESSY). This technology also use transponders and is either standard or optional equipment on various model and years.


Why does Lamborghini use transponder keys?

vehicle anti theft Transponder key provide vehicles with a higher security level against theft. Transponder deter and prevent theft by eliminating the option of ‘hot wiring’ the car using a discrete code. This makes breaking the door and ignition lock ineffective! If the car computer doesn’t recognize the key microchip code, it won’t start.


How does Lamborghini transponder and immobilizer work?

An immobilized Lamborghini consist of immobilizer system called 'immobilizer 4 with download'. This anti-theft device blocks the ignition if the control key is not the original or been tampered with. The immobilisation system consist of a one master and one slave ECU, immobilizer and a transponder ignition key. A secret encrypted code is programmed processed and saved on each one of the immobiliser components.


When the key touch the ignition, the transponder receive power from the vehicle and propagate the code to all immobiliser components using RFID signals. If the code read consides on all components, the ignition permits the starting of the engine. If the code is not recognized, the ignition cut off after 3 seconds and a 'SAFE' led will appear on the instrument cluster.

How to duplicate Lamborghini keys and remotes?

duplicate car keys Lamborghini key programming is done with proprietary diagnostic equipment and programmers. The process of making a spare key also requires a unique PIN code obtained from Lamborghini. All previous keys must to be present for the duplication process.


To duplicate a Lamborghini key you have two options, the dealer or a locksmith. Getting a spare key from the dealership is a good option for a good quality OEM keys. The locksmith will be a good option if you are looking for the convenience.


Lamborghini key made by VIN

Each lock on your Lamborghini created with a special keycode at manufacturing time and saved with the VIN. Using the VIN, the locksmith or the dealer what’s designated for each cut in the key. To duplicate a key you will provide your VIN number, registration or title. Many times the dealer don't have the key in stock and will order a replacement key from Lamborghini which will takes 2 to 5 days to be delivered. Once the key has arrived, you will have to drive with your vehicle to the dealer to cut and program the new key.


Lamborghini key cloning

Few locksmiths have the ability to identify, edit, generate and clone transponder keys, remotes and smart keys. Using special key cloning machine, they can detect the signals from the transponder key code and the ignition coil. Cloning is usually used when you don't want to wait for the dealer key or if there is a problem in the vehicle key-lock system. For example, if the ignition cylinder and coil was replaced before.


Why is it hard to find a locksmith to make keys for Lamborghini?

Lamborghini was one of the first to protect the transponder with a unique 4-digit PIN code for each vehicle. Initially, the code was available only to the dealer. The 4 digit was ‘hashed’ in a 7-digit PIN that changed daily and is unique to the specific dealer.


The 4 digit code was eventually cracked and could easily be converted back to a 4-digit static PIN. Using a proprietary diagnostic tool (VAS 5052), few locksmiths can make keys to Lamborghini until 2005.


In 2006 Lamborghini countermeasure the process to keep grubby locksmiths from tinkering with their preciouses. Their proprietary diagnostic tool has to be plugged in simultaneously to the vehicle and to Lamborghini database via the internet.


After a wotldwide protest, Lamborghini made the ability to program keys available to third parties. A locksmith today can program Lamborghini keys ONLY if he purchase the VAS 5052 from Lamborghini.


Can you program a Lamborghini remote yourself?

Sometimes the remote might lose synchronization with the ECU. This might happens after replacing the battery in the key or in the vehicle or maybe just after purchesing a new duplicate key. Lamborghini provide an onboard interface to resync/reprogram remotes using the following steps:


  1. Put key in ignition.
  2. Press and hold unlock button.
  3. Turn the ignition to the ON postion.
  4. Turn the ignition back off.


Lost/stolen key replacement! What to do?

lost key madeIf your Lamborghini made before 2000, your vehicle use a key with no chip. Find a dealer, locksmith or even a hardware store with a car key cutting machine and get a new key made by the VIN.


One exception to the above is if the ignition changed and is not in sync with the VIN. In the second case a locksmith need to replace the ignition again or to make a new key by reading the key grooves inside the ignition cylinder. This process is more complex and requires a locksmith with the right machine and experience.


If you lost all your keys to a vehicle that uses transponder key, the auto computer should be reprogrammed. The immobiliser will accept a new key and reject the old one certifying the disabling of the old/lost/stolen key.


This reprogramming interface available only to the Lamborghini dealer or a licensed locksmith. This means that the car towed to the dealer or a mobile locksmith will have to come out to you.


Note - If you choose to tow your vehicle to the dealer, you don't need the car at the dealer when you order the key. You only need to tow the vehicle when the new key arrives to the dealer.


Can the dealer make keys for older Lamborghini?

Most Lamborghini dealers has stopped making remotes and flipkeys for older models. They will cut a new metal transponder key to manually unlock the door and start the car but no fobs.
