Spare keysRegain Entry Into Your Škoda Superb
Lost your Škoda Superb key, or had a keyless fob stolen? The Superb is a genuine workhorse — the motorway-mile company car, the executive-space family estate and a private-hire favourite — so being locked out or immobilised does not just inconvenience you, it can cost you a working day.
The Škoda dealer answer to a lost Superb key is generally to recover the car, find a slot that may be a week off, and bill the keyless fob, the coding and the transport as one. A general cutter cannot touch the KESSY system, so without dealer-level coding the car stays immobilised.
Lock City handles both. As a mobile VAG specialist we carry the dealer-level software and the correct smart-key blanks to code a new Superb key — flip or keyless — to your immobiliser at the roadside. Lost a keyless fob to theft? We can programme a fresh key and disable the missing one so it can no longer start the car.

Škoda Superb Keys: Types & What You Need
The Superb’s key system stepped up sharply with the current Mk3, so the generation matters for both cost and security advice:
Superb Mk1 / Mk2 (2001–2015) — pre-MQB
- Blade: HU66 internal-cut VAG blade.
- Transponder: Megamos Crypto (ID48) / Hitag2.
- Remote / keyless: flip (switchblade) remote as standard; early KESSY keyless offered on higher trims.
- All-keys-lost: OBD-programmable at the roadside with dealer-level kit.
Superb Mk3 (2015–present) — MQB
- Platform: MQB with IMMO5 and component protection — shared architecture with the VW Passat B8, Golf Mk7/Mk8 and Audi A3.
- Transponder: Megamos AES; keyless KESSY smart proximity common on SE L Executive, Sportline and Laurin & Klement trims that dominate the company-car parc.
- Security: the keyless KESSY system is a relay-theft consideration — a Faraday pouch, disciplined spare storage and re-coding after any theft all matter. All-keys-lost needs dealer-level immo data.
Note: the Mk2-to-Mk3 (pre-MQB to MQB) change lands around 2015, but keyless availability varies by trim [verify against your VIN]. Tell us your reg and we will confirm whether yours is the older Megamos car or a component-protected KESSY Superb.
The Škoda Superb at a glance
The Superb is Škoda’s large liftback and estate (Mk3, type B8, 2015 on). Its executive and private-hire role means KESSY keyless is very common — a big factor in what a replacement costs.
- Keyless: KESSY proximity entry is standard on SE L, Sportline and Laurin & Klement [verify against your VIN].
- A lost keyless fob on a Superb is a security event as well as an access one — we can disable the missing fob.
The Superb scenarios we see
Superbs come to us from chauffeurs and executives who cannot afford to be stranded — a lost KESSY fob on a Laurin & Klement is a same-day priority. The limousine-grade legroom means airport and wedding work, so uptime matters.
- Chauffeur locked out before an airport run.
- Lost keyless fob needing the old one disabled.
- An L&K owner wanting a coded spare on standby.
Škoda Superb Key Replacement — Your Questions Answered
My Škoda Superb is keyless (KESSY) — can you still make a new key?
Yes. The Mk3 Superb uses a keyless KESSY smart fob with a secure Megamos AES chip, and we carry both the blanks and the current VAG software to programme one to your car at the roadside, including keyless all-keys-lost.
My keyless Superb fob was stolen — is the car at risk?
Potentially, yes — a stolen keyless fob can start the car. We can programme a new fob and de-register the stolen one so it will no longer unlock or start the Superb. See our stolen car keys service.
Can you come to my workplace for a company-car Superb?
Yes — a lot of our Superb work is exactly that. We attend homes, offices and car parks to cut and programme keys on-site, so you are not off the road waiting for a dealer slot. See our car key replacement service.
Why is a new Mk3 Superb key more involved than an older one?
The Mk3 is on the MQB platform with component protection, so a replacement key needs dealer-level online immo data rather than a simple cut-and-copy. We are equipped for it, but a spare cut now while you still have a working key is cheaper than an all-keys-lost later.
Can you programme an older flip-key Superb too?
Yes. Mk1 and Mk2 Superbs use an HU66 flip key with a Megamos transponder, which we cut and code on-site by OBD. Whether you have an older flip key or a new keyless KESSY fob, we can sort it in a single visit.
