Manual vs diagnostic programming

  • Many 2011–2018 XV models use **registration connectors** (join wires) for remote programming
  • Many 2018–2022 models use **OBD diagnostics** with a “Program Remotes” function
  • Some 2018+ systems can behave differently depending on software/trim level

XV programming FAQ

Can you program a remote if I already have a working key?

Often yes (model dependent). If manual registration isn’t supported on your variant, diagnostic programming may be required.

Do you handle transponder and push-to-start keys?

Yes where fitted and supported. These typically require diagnostic programming.

Can you help with all keys lost?

Often yes (model dependent). Call with your year/model and we’ll confirm options.
