Whether your Acura TLX uses a bladed transponder key, a remote head key, or a proximity smart key, we can help. We confirm the exact key your vehicle needs and make it on site.
We come to you anywhere in Berkeley: your driveway, a parking lot, work, or roadside. With proof of ownership, we can even make keys when every key is lost.
Dealerships are not your only option for a replacement key. An experienced mobile automotive locksmith often provides the same result — a properly cut and programmed key — with more convenience and, frequently, a friendlier price.

How Acura key replacement works
Confirm the vehicle: We verify your Acura TLX's exact key type so we bring the right blank and programmer.
Prove ownership: We ask for documentation showing the vehicle is yours — this protects you against theft.
Cut and program: We cut the key and program it to your vehicle's system on location.
Test everything: We confirm the engine starts and that lock, unlock, and remote functions work before we leave.

Acura TLX keys by year
Older TLX model years often use transponder or remote head keys, while newer ones commonly use proximity smart keys with push-to-start. Tell us your year and we will confirm the exact key and pricing.
Whatever the generation, we can cut and program the correct key for your Acura TLX on site in Berkeley.
The single best thing you can do to avoid a stressful, expensive day later is to make a spare while you still have a working key. All-keys-lost programming takes more time and costs more than simply cutting a spare — a small step now that saves a lot later.

Avoid a lockout: get a spare Acura key
A fob that suddenly stops working is not always dead. Sometimes it just needs a fresh battery or a new shell; other times it needs reprogramming. We can test which it is before assuming you need a full replacement.

Acura key replacement cost
Cost depends on the exact key technology your Acura TLX uses — a basic transponder key is very different from a proximity smart fob — plus whether it is a spare or an all-keys-lost job. Call (408) 755-3415 with your year and model for an accurate quote.
An all-keys-lost situation typically costs more than cutting a spare, simply because it requires additional programming. It is one more reason a spare key made today is such a smart, money-saving move.
That is why we quote based on your specific make, model, and year rather than a generic number. Call (408) 755-3415 with those details and whether you still have a working key, and we will give you a clear, honest price.
