Lost your Land Rover Discovery 5 smart key? Need a spare key fob programmed fast? AJ Auto is London’s trusted Jaguar Land Rover key specialist delivering expert, mobile smart key fob replacement and programming services across London and throughout England, backed by a full 12-month warranty.
The Land Rover Discovery 5 (L462, 2017–present) is equipped with one of the most sophisticated keyless entry and start systems in the SUV segment. Unlike older generation vehicles, the Discovery 5 uses a PEPS (Passive Entry Passive Start) smart key fob system there is no traditional mechanical ignition key involved. The key communicates continuously with your vehicle’s security modules, including the KVM (Keyless Vehicle Module), BCM (Body Control Module), and the RFA (Remote Function Actuator).
This means that replacing a Discovery 5 smart key fob is not a simple plug-and-play task. It requires dealer-grade diagnostic programming equipment and deep expertise in JLR vehicle architecture exactly what AJ Auto specialises in.
When your Discovery 5 key fob is lost, damaged, or stops working, your vehicle becomes inaccessible and potentially immobilised. The Discovery 5’s layered security system means that any new key fob must be cryptographically paired to your specific vehicle at a module level. Attempting to use an unprogrammed or incorrectly coded fob will not unlock or start your vehicle and could trigger the vehicle’s security alarm system.
AJ Auto is not a general locksmith. We are a dedicated Jaguar Land Rover key replacement specialist, with deep expertise in the full Discovery 5 (L462) range including HSE, SE, HSE Luxury, and First Edition models. Our technicians work exclusively with JLR vehicles, which means we understand the nuances of Discovery 5 security architecture better than any generalist service.

Every fob is programmed to your vehicle’s unique security profile using advanced JLR-compatible diagnostic tools, ensuring full functionality including proximity entry, push-button start, remote locking, and alarm integration.
Having a spare Discovery 5 smart key is not a luxury it’s a practical necessity. A spare key fob protects you from being stranded in an emergency, and adding a second key while you still have your original is significantly more straightforward and cost-effective than an all-keys-lost situation. AJ Auto can add a spare key fob to your Discovery 5 quickly and efficiently.
