About the Vauxhall Vivaro and its keys
Early Vivaros were essentially a Renault Trafic underneath, while the current generation shares its platform with Peugeot and Citroën vans instead. That change has a direct effect on which key fits, so year and registration are always our starting point.
Lost Vauxhall Vivaro keys
No working key left on your Vivaro? We'll need the registration, year and where it's parked before confirming whether a replacement is achievable.
Spare Vivaro keys
Teams sharing a single Vivaro benefit most from a spare key cut while one still works, keeping the van usable whoever's driving that day.
Vivaro remote keys and programming
Vivaro remotes aren't consistent across generations, so the year matters from the outset. Describe exactly what the fob does and doesn't do and we'll check whether a new one can be programmed. See van key programming.
Lockouts and damaged Vivaro keys
A Vivaro locked up with the key inside, or a damaged key that won't budge, is something to describe to us along with the registration so we can advise. See keys locked in a van.
Vivaro ignition problems
A Vivaro key that feels stiff or won't turn normally comes down to the blade or the mechanical barrel. Where the key turns but the van won't start or the electrics cut, the ignition switch is one possibility alongside battery and wiring faults, so we diagnose properly before touching anything. See Vauxhall van ignition replacement.
Where we attend
We'll come to a Vivaro on a driveway, street or worksite anywhere around Southampton, provided the job's one we can do safely on site. See all areas covered.
What to send for a quote
- Registration and year of your Vivaro
- Where the van is parked
- Which key type it is (or was)
- Whether any working key is left
Compatibility is checked against your exact van before anything is booked — some years and variants fall outside what we can do.

Vauxhall Vivaro key questions
Will an old Vivaro key fit a newer one?
No — Vivaro generations sit on different platforms, so the key depends entirely on the year.
Can a new remote be programmed to my Vivaro?
For most Vivaros, yes, subject to checking compatibility first. Send the registration and year across.
