Ibiza, Leon & Arona — VW Group ID48 Crypto On Site
SEAT sits on the VW Group platform — which means every SEAT from the Ibiza to the Tarraco uses the same HU66 blade and ID48 Megamos Crypto 48 transponder system as Volkswagen and Audi. Aaron programmes SEAT keys using the Xhorse VVDI2 — the same tool used on the documented Audi A5 all-keys-lost job — with OBD PIN extraction without cluster removal on most models.
SEAT uses the same platform generations as VW: PQ25 on older Ibiza 6J, PQ35 on Leon Mk2 and Ibiza 6J facelift, and MQB on current Leon Mk4, Ibiza KJ and Arona. All generations use HU66 and ID48 — the difference is the encryption level and PIN extraction method, both of which Aaron’s VVDI2 handles via OBD.
The SEAT Alhambra shares the VW Sharan platform and uses the same HU66/ID48 system. The SEAT Mii shares the VW up! and Skoda Citigo platform — a simpler key system with standard ID46. Aaron carries HU66 blanks and confirms the exact platform from your registration before setting off.
No VAT on any SEAT job. No call-out fee. Aaron confirms your SEAT's VW Group platform and whether cluster removal is needed before setting off. It usually isn't.

“Lost my Leon keys in Barnsley. Aaron confirmed it was MQB platform, came out within 30 minutes, had the ID48 crypto sorted without touching the cluster. No VAT — brilliant.”
“Needed a spare key for my Ibiza in Sheffield. Aaron came to my driveway, VVDI2 job done in 35 minutes. No VAT, cheaper than the SEAT dealer. Would recommend.”
“Arona all keys lost in Rotherham. Aaron confirmed the MQB A0 platform over the phone, came out and had it sorted on site. Professional and no VAT.”

Very grateful for AH Autokeys work. He did a fantastic job for me. I locked my car and house keys in my car boot at gone 11pm at night when I was out alone, I had 6% phone battery, called the first person I found on Google, only to find out he wasn’t local. Despite this though, he still agreed to drive out 50mins to help. The car was unlocked door in no time but the boot wasn’t accessible from the inside and the car was too old to be opened electronically. He spent a long time trying to unlock the car boot. After a while, I was worried he might give up and say it can’t be done. He persevered though and finally managed to retrieve my keys. If I’d called somebody else, maybe they’d have given up on it so I’m really grateful that he stuck with it for me! I hope I never have to use the service again, but if I find myself in this boat in the future, this will be the first place I call. I can’t recommend enough. Thank you!Posted on Google![]()
