AutoKey Squad Citroen Car Key Specialist Bryan Shillbeer explains: “This advice will work to programme a Remote Fob for a wide array of Citroen vehicles. Some of the very latest remotes work on a new programming system, but whatever your model of Citroen, this procedure is well worth a try before you contact a Car Key Specialist.
