Replacing Porsche Car Keys

Keyless Entry

Keyless car entry systems allows you to lock, unlock, or start your car without the use of traditional keys. However, it also opens the possibility for thieves to steal your vehicle.

The issue is that the radio signal of a key fob could be detected by criminals using relay devices, which can be bought on the Internet for just PS100. These devices transmit the radio frequency of your key to a device located near your vehicle, which could then open your engine and restart it.

This is a typical method to break into cars that have keyless entry systems, and it's why several manufacturers have taken steps to make their fobs less vulnerable. Ford's new Fiesta and Focus models come with an option that disables the wireless system for 40 seconds if it doesn't detect any movement on it. This makes it harder for thieves to pick up your car signal.

You can also store your fob safely to protect your Porsche against theft. A remote for a car that is keyless typically has one that locks and unlocks the door, and also one that starts the engine.

They'll also be able to offer you tips and suggestions on how to keep your car's key safe, such as keeping it in a secure garage or using a locking bag for the fob.

Transponder Chips

Transponder chips are embedded in every new car since 1997. They offer an additional layer of security to your Porsche. The chip transmits a signal to the ignition locks and if the code is correct the vehicle's immobilizer is disarmed, in turn allowing the engine to begin.

Standard transponder keys aren't equipped with batteries, unlike remote head keys. They use radio signals generated by the key along with a small amount power from the vehicle to transmit the signal. This means that they are not dependent on any power source external to them for operation and don't require any maintenance or repairs.

They are considered to be more secure than traditional metal keys since they aren't susceptible to hacking using hot wiring methods. This is a common method to bypass the keyless entry system used in modern cars. Even if a hacker manages to hack into the system the transponder key is much more difficult to duplicate than a key made of metal because it is a rolling code.

It is essential to get your high-security keys programmed by an automotive locksmith. This will prevent theft and allow you to reprogramme the key in the future with no problems.
