Citroen immobiliser systems — what you need to know
Technical notes on Citroen key programming
- BSI (Body Service Interface): central body computer on every modern Citroen — identical architecture to Peugeot. Stores the immobiliser PIN and authorises key learning.
- 4-digit PIN code: required to programme any new key. DKP extracts it from the BSI on-site via OBD.
- Hitag2 / PCF7941 / PCF7961 transponders: used across the Citroen range — DKP stocks every variant.
- BSI 2010 / BSI Q03: recent generations with stronger encryption (C3 III, C4 III, C5 X) — DKP technicians use Lexia 3 / DiagBox / Stellantis Star equivalents.
- Stellantis CMP platform (2019+): shared electric / petrol architecture used on C3 III, C4 III. New encryption protocols — DKP is certified.
- Citroen connected services / My Citroen app: remote services tied to the smart key — DKP coordinates re-pairing.

Citroen key replacement — FAQ
How long does a Citroen key replacement take?
A Citroen key duplication takes 45 to 90 minutes on-site. Recent Citroens (C5 X, C5 Aircross, C4 X) with proximity smart keys can take up to 2 hours including BSI configuration and full road test.
Can DKP make a Citroen key without the original?
Yes. DKP technicians extract the BSI 4-digit PIN code on-site and programme a new Citroen key from scratch. No need to leave your car at a Citroen dealer for days.
What is the BSI on a Citroen?
The BSI (Body Service Interface) is the central body computer on every Citroen from 2001 onwards. It stores the immobiliser data and the unique 4-digit PIN code required to add or remove keys. DKP reads it on-site in seconds via OBD.
Does DKP work on Citroen e-C4 and electric models?
Yes. The full Citroen electric range — e-C3, e-C4, e-C4 X, e-Berlingo, e-SpaceTourer — is supported. The key system uses the Stellantis CMP / STLA platform architecture, identical in principle to Peugeot e-models.
