Common Locksmith Issues with the Holden Commodore VU

The Holden Commodore VU, like many vehicles in the VR-VZ series, faces a few key locksmithing issues as it ages. Here are some common problems that we address:

1. Ignition Barrel Issues
   The VR-VZ series Commodores, including the VU, use sealed ignition units, meaning the entire head must be replaced if there’s an issue. We never repair these ignitions — we always replace them, and the cost for this service in our shop is $165. This ensures that the new ignition matches the original key code.

2. Lost Keys and Key Programming
   Lost keys are a common problem for Holden Commodore VU owners. We use tools like T300, XTool, Smart Pro, and Autel to program new keys and ensure they work properly with the vehicle’s system. We can program both genuine and aftermarket remote keys, depending on customer preferences.

3. Security Code and Key Extraction
   For some Holden Commodore VU models, retrieving the security code is necessary to program new keys. We can extract key codes using tools like the Smart Pro to ensure that new keys are fully functional.
