2004 Acura TSX Transponder Key Replacement - Fast, Affordable & Professional
Here's what you're actually buying when you pay for a 2004 Acura TSX key replacement. Three things. The physical key blank with the correct housing and blade profile. The precision cut so the blade matches your car's lock. And the transponder programming so the immobilizer recognizes the new key and lets the engine start. The dealer charges $382 for those three things. I charge around $178.
A traveling consultant staying at an Airbnb in Lakeside had locked her only Acura key inside the car. She was visiting from out of state, had no spare, and the dealer told her they could fit her in two days from now. She had a flight home in 36 hours.
I met her at the rental house that evening. Her Transponder Key uses Acura's proximity smart key system, so I connected through the OBD port and used my Xtool to run the programming sequence. Her fob, FCC ID , was a 3-button smart key with remote start. I had it programmed and tested in about 20 minutes.
The blank costs me about $40. The cut is done on my machine in the van. The programming takes about 20 minutes through OBD. Her total was $178. The dealer was charging $382 for the exact same three things plus making her wait two days she didn't have. She thanked me twice and said she'd been dreading the idea of changing her flight.

“Quick, affordable, and professional service. Marco made a new key for my motorcycle after I lost it and had me back on the road fast. Clean work, great price, and super friendly.”
“I needed a car key replacement in Hillcrest and EZ Car Keyz helped me immediately. The technician programmed a new smart key right next to my car and tested every function before leaving. Fast, friendly, and very professional.”
“The dealership quoted me $600 for a new Honda key. EZ Car Keyz did it for $225, same day, cut and programmed at my house. Works perfectly. Everyone should know this is an option.”
