Is there a subaru biu key programming (mail-in) shop in Columbus I should use instead?
Most Columbus shops don't keep the bench equipment for subaru biu key programming (mail-in) — they'd forward the module to a specialist anyway, which adds a markup and a middleman. Going direct to us is usually faster and cheaper. Cross-region northeast — about 2 days each way.
Does Ohio vehicle inspection or emissions testing affect this service?
Ohio requires emissions testing (E-Check) only in the seven-county Cleveland-Akron area; the rest of the state is exempt. Our service is bench module programming only — you remain responsible for your vehicle's compliance with all Ohio and federal requirements.
Which Subarus does BIU all-keys-lost programming cover?
Most reliably the blade G-key models from roughly 2012-2017 - Impreza, Legacy, Outback, Forester, WRX/STI and Crosstrek/XV - plus the BRZ / 86 / FR-S. Smart-key (push-button) trims and newer years should be checked by VIN and a module photo first.
Do I have to bring the car in, or can I mail the module?
For all-keys-lost the BIU is removed and worked on the bench, so it's mail-in: you ship the BIU, we pair a fresh key, and return it ready to install.
