FAQ Lost Scion Keys Replacement:

 

Q: Scion key replacement cost – How much does it cost to replace Scion key without the original? What is the average price?

Scion Key replacement Cost - Price Depends On a Few Factors
Scion Key replacement Cost – Price Depends On a Few Factors

A: In short, to replace a Scion key usually cost between $70-$350. It depends on a few factors:

  1. Type of key
  2. The year manufactured
  3. Time of day & your location
  4. Where you get a key replacement (Dealer, automotive locksmith, online, etc)
  5. Availability of code to cut a new key
  6. Original ignition or not

The type of key you had and the year the car was manufactured are maybe the most important factors.(chip, intelligent fob, “push to start”, remote, regular “non-transponder” key). The newer the car is, the better security features the key had and therefore you can expect to pay more than $250 for a replacement key. Choose your Scion model(from the drop-down menu) and type of key you had for a more accurate price and information.

In addition, it depends on where you get a key replacement. The dealer, automotive locksmith or get it online. Click here to get a more detailed explanation.

The dealer usually charges about 10%-15% less than a locksmith would for the key. However, most chances you will have to tow the car there to program the new key or remote and therefore the total price is usually higher.

Furthermore, consider that if you are looking to have a locksmith to come out and make you a new key outside regular business hours, the price may go up.

Finally, in case your Scion ignition cylinder was changed before (usually with older cars), that probably means that the code for the key may not be useful and the key will have to be either cut manually by a locksmith or to change the ignition again which in this case the dealer can’t be of help.

Q: How can I know if my Scion xB 2015 key had a chip in it? I understand that some keys need to be programmed and some don’t?

A: A good rule of thumb is that a key that had a plastic cover at the top and/or the was made after the year of 2000, most chances had a chip in it.

Hence, in case you lost your Scion key and the key had a chip in it, it will have to be programmed on site in order to start the car.

An automotive locksmith for Scion keys replacement can do that on site. Alternatively, you can contact the dealer, but the car will have to be towed there.
