Toyota Auris Key Replacement in Bristol

A lost or worn-out Toyota Auris key leaves you going nowhere. The Auris was the UK name for Toyota’s Corolla-class hatchback, and many are still hard-working hybrids doing big miles — so an immobilised Auris you cannot start is a real problem, not a minor one.

The dealer route means recovering the Auris, waiting for an appointment and paying for the key, the coding and the transport. A high-street key cutter cannot help — the Auris runs a Toyota immobiliser, so an uncoded key opens the door but never fires the engine. You need someone who knows the Auris key system generation by generation.

That is Lock City. We are a mobile auto locksmith carrying the dealer-level software, the correct Toyota transponders and the right blanks your Auris needs. We come to you, cut or supply the key and code it to your immobiliser on-site — no towing, no dealer delay, and every Auris key replacement guaranteed. Phone 07967 097 899, Mon–Fri 8am–5:30pm.

The Auris ran for two generations before Toyota revived the Corolla name in the UK in 2019. If your car is a 2019-on hatchback it is badged Corolla — see our Toyota Corolla key page. For the Auris itself:

Auris Mk1 (E150, 2006–2012)

• Blade: TOY43 blade.
• Key: bladed transponder / remote key using the earlier Toyota G-chip; a plain transponder key on base trims.
• All-keys-lost: roadside-programmable with dealer-level kit.

Auris Mk2 (E180, 2012–2018)

• Key: bladed / flip key with the Toyota G-chip (DST80) on most trims; keyless Smart Key System offered on higher trims, and the hybrid was a big seller.
• Blade: TOY48-family high-security profile.
• All-keys-lost: G-chip cars programmable at the roadside; smart-key AKL takes longer.

Note: whether your Auris is bladed or keyless, and the exact chip, depends on the trim and build date [verify against your VIN]. Tell us your reg and we will confirm the key type before we come out.
