mobile service - we come to you
Audi, Skoda, Seat, Volkswagen share the same igntion parts. Ignition faults on these vehicles are a frequent problem and can prevent your vehicle from starting without warning. Issues such as a key that feels stiff, won’t turn, or a steering lock that has completely failed are very common.
This is a common issue with Ford Transits and, in many cases, Ford Fiestas. Over time, the wafers inside the ignition barrel can wear down, causing the key to turn stiffly or intermittently. If left unresolved, the ignition may eventually fail to turn altogether.
It’s best to have the problem addressed as early as possible to avoid further damage or more costly complications.
If you’re finding it increasingly difficult to remove your key from your Nissan’s ignition, it’s a sign that the ignition is beginning to fail.
Left unresolved, the issue will likely worsen until the key becomes completely stuck.
We can carry out repairs at the roadside, restoring smooth operation and preventing future problems with your key getting stuck. This is a common issue with Nissan Qashqai’s , Nissan notes and Nissan micra’s.

EXCELLENT Based on 75 reviews Posted on Google Abi Walker- SpiersTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Locked myself out of my car. Locksmith came out super quick, 45 minutes, and had the car open very quickly. Great communication, friendly service, very reasonable price to be back in my car so quick. Would absolutely recommend / use againPosted on Google Deborah AmottTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Nick was amazing regarding spare keys for our Micra and Astra. Both were replaced at very reasonable cost, and the bonus being Nick came out to us, which saved a half hour journey each way. When our main Astra key then started playing up, Nick tried to help via messages, but we weren't confident to try the changes ourselves. So Nick visited again and we did end up needing a brand new key as the original was badly damaged. Again, done at a very reasonable cost. Nick is helpful, friendly and so easy to deal with. We would highly recommend.Posted on Google Lynne DeaconTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Mick was fabulous. From call to key took an hour. Highly recommendPosted on Google CarlosTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. All positive and very happy all roundPosted on Google Organise SpaceTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Nick did a great job replacing the proximity assembly on my Nissan Micra – a job that several other mechanics refused to take on! He has a logical engineer's brain and approached the problem methodically, explaining the likely chances of success at every stage of what turned out to be a complicated repair. Highly recommended.Posted on Google Karen PestellTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Excellent service and highly recommend Nick. Great communications, prompt, professional and knowledgeable.Posted on Google aid anTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Had anti-theft hook locks and a protection plate fitted to my van by Nick. Really pleased with the work carried out — professional, tidy, and explained everything clearly. The locks feel solid and give great peace of mind knowing the van is much more secure now. Would highly recommend Nick to anyone looking to improve van security.Posted on Google Edwin ThriftTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. After a house fire and losing all keys for the cars Nick come straight away and made two sets of keys!Posted on Google Dean BluntTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Highly recommend NJS. Helped me with a vehicle lockout a few weeks ago. Turned up 20 minutes after calling and got me back into my van and now a few weeks later I called for a new key and he met me at my place of work the very next day and sorted me out with a brand new key and even repaired my existing one.
