Subaru keys — what you should know
Subaru immobiliser and push-button start systems are within our normal scope, including origination with no key. Subaru uses an immobiliser across the modern range and programming requires access to the vehicle's security system. Outbacks and Foresters are common across the GTA and we carry stock for them.

Subaru keys — questions
Can you make a Subaru key if I have lost all of them?
For most Subaru models and years, yes, and at the vehicle rather than at a dealership. Subaru keyways — we cut from code obtained through authorised channels or by decoding the lock directly, then program to the immobiliser on site. Subaru immobiliser across the modern range; push-button start on most current models. We verify ownership before any of it, every time.
What kind of key does a Subaru use?
Subaru keyways. Subaru immobiliser across the modern range; push-button start on most current models. This matters because cutting alone is never enough on a modern vehicle — a key cut without programming works the lock and turns the ignition, and the engine cranks and does not start. Give us the year and model and we will tell you exactly which key your car takes before coming out.
How much is a Subaru key, and how long does it take?
Price follows the key type, not the badge — a transponder key is at the low end, a remote head key in the middle, a proximity smart key at the top because the blank itself is expensive. A spare with a working key present is usually thirty to sixty minutes on site. All-keys-lost takes longer, and several makes impose a manufacturer security wait of ten to sixty minutes during programming that nothing can shorten.
