Key programming for a car is a process that varies greatly depending on the model and brand of the vehicle, but in general there are two main methods: using a specialized OBD diagnostic device, such as VCDS or OBD11, which allow access to the car's electronic control unit and programming new keys by connecting to the EOBD port of the vehicle and executing a series of commands through the software.

This method is used by professionals in the field, especially for modern cars.

Older cars, on the other hand, allow keys to be programmed manually, using a series of button combinations on the remote or instrument panel, but the procedure varies from vehicle to vehicle and may not be included in the owner's manual, and it is limited to basic functions, and certainly does not include functions such as the immobilizer.

The advice is to consult a professional, especially for recent vehicles.
