Oldsmobile Key Replacement in Boca Raton, FL

Lost your Oldsmobile key? We make a new one at your car.

Oldsmobile closed in 2004, and most of its cars use either a VATS resistor key or an early GM chip key. Both are still fully supported, and we make them at the car.

Einstein Locksmith is a mobile locksmith based in Boca Raton. We come to wherever your Oldsmobile is parked, cut the key, program it to the car, and you drive away. Call or text (561) 561-5397 with the year and model and you get a price before we come out.

Oldsmobile keys by year

Which key your Oldsmobile uses decides how it is made. Years are approximate and vary by model.

Years	Key type	What it means
Late 1980s to 1990s	VATS key	A metal key with a small resistor pellet in the blade. The pellet value has to match the car, so a hardware-store copy will not start it.
About 1997 to 2000s	Transponder (chip) key	PK3 and PK3+ keys with a chip in the head. Some 2000s GM trucks and SUVs used a plain cut key with the security in the ignition instead.

The dealer, or a locksmith who comes to you

Oldsmobile was discontinued in 2004, so there is no Oldsmobile dealer to go to. A dealer for the parent brand can sometimes help, but the car still has to get there.

With us there is no tow and nothing to order in most cases. Our price is typically well below the dealer’s, and you get it before we come out.

Oldsmobile models we make keys for

Alero, Intrigue, Cutlass, Eighty-Eight, Ninety-Eight, Aurora, Silhouette, Bravada, and others. If yours is not listed, ask.

Oldsmobile key questions

How much does an Oldsmobile key replacement cost?

It depends on the model, the year and the type of key, so we quote before we come out, and the price you are quoted is the price you pay. Our price is typically well below a dealer’s, and there is no tow.

Can you make an Oldsmobile key without the original?

Yes in most cases. That is an all-keys-lost job: we make the new key from the car itself, at the car.

My Oldsmobile key has a small pellet in the blade. Is that a chip?

It is a resistor, part of GM’s VATS system. A new key has to carry the same resistance value. We measure yours and cut a matching key.

Do I need to tow my Oldsmobile to you?

No. We are a mobile locksmith, so there is no shop to tow to. We come to the car within about 30 miles of Boca Raton, across Palm Beach and Broward County.

How long does it take?

Most keys are cut and programmed in under an hour once we are at the car. High-security systems can take longer, and we tell you what to expect when you call.
