Suzuki Solio Locksmith Hamilton
The Suzuki Solio is a compact JDM-import mini MPV — not sold new in New Zealand, but a common and practical used Japanese import thanks to its tall, boxy interior and easy-to-drive size. Hamilton has a steady number of Solios on the road, mostly privately imported second-hand. Most Solios we see use a transponder key with a remote fob, though later imports can be fitted with a proximity smart key — we confirm which system your specific import has before quoting.
We cut and program Suzuki Solio keys at your location across Hamilton and the Waikato, including all-keys-lost recovery and spare keys for JDM imports.

“Lost the only key to my Hilux on a Friday afternoon. New key cut and programmed in my driveway by Saturday morning — and it cost half what the dealer quoted. Will absolutely call again.”
Suzuki Solio Key System and Coverage
As a JDM-only import, the Solio you own may be fitted with either a conventional transponder key and remote, or — on later imports — a proximity smart key with push-button start. Because import specification varies by year and grade, we confirm the exact key system fitted to your Solio over the phone or on arrival before quoting a firm price.
All-keys-lost recovery reads the immobiliser through the OBD port and generates a new key directly from the vehicle, with the lost key deleted from the system once the job is complete.
Common Suzuki Solio Key Problems in Hamilton
Import with no spare key: A common situation — many Solios arrive in NZ with only one key, and sourcing a factory spare from Japan can take weeks. We cut and program a locally sourced spare on site, usually the same day.
Lost key, import paperwork unclear on key count: We work from the vehicle itself rather than relying on import documentation, reading the immobiliser directly to confirm what is needed.

Frequently asked
Suzuki key questions
How much does a Suzuki Solio key replacement cost in Hamilton?
Depends on whether your import has a standard transponder key or a smart key — typically $160–$420. We confirm which system your Solio has and give an exact price before we travel.
Can you do a 2023 or newer Suzuki Solio?
We cover the Solio up to 2022 model year. For 2023-onward models, call us with your registration and we'll confirm — these are newer to the market and we're expanding coverage, so ring first rather than assume either way.
Can you cut keys for JDM imports without the original dealer or import paperwork?
Yes. We work directly from the vehicle's immobiliser rather than relying on import paperwork, so missing documentation isn't a barrier.
