Renault key-system support
Renault keys combine access, immobiliser authorisation, remote control and keyless-entry functions.
Depending on the model and generation, a Renault key may use a conventional transponder key, remote head key, flip key, keyless entry or proximity-based push-button-start system.
Earlier Renault models use transponder and remote keys, while newer platforms may use keyless entry, push-button start, integrated immobiliser systems and connected functions.
Odell Automotive checks the registration, year, exact model, chassis code and key type before confirming what can be completed at the vehicle.

Renault key security
Replacing the key is only one part of the solution.
When a Renault key is lost or stolen, electronic authorisation and physical access should be considered separately.
Read the vehicle security guide →Restore access
Create a suitable replacement key where supported.
Review authorisation
Check whether the missing key can be removed from the authorised key list.
Consider physical access
Electronic deletion does not automatically prevent a blade operating a mechanical lock.
Review smart-key precautions
Use sensible storage and signal-blocking measures where Smart Entry is fitted.
