Is there a subaru biu clone / all-keys-lost shop in Chicago I should use instead?
Most Chicago shops don't keep the bench equipment for subaru biu clone / all-keys-lost — 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 north — about 2 days each way.
Does Illinois vehicle inspection or emissions testing affect this service?
Illinois requires emissions testing in the Chicago and Metro-East St. Louis areas; downstate counties are exempt. Our service is bench module programming only — you remain responsible for your vehicle's compliance with all Illinois and federal requirements.
Why can't a locksmith just add a key through the OBD port?
On these 2012–2017 blade-key Subarus, only a working key can authorize adding another through the port. When every key is gone, there is no OBD procedure — the registration lives in the BIU's EEPROM and has to be reset on the bench. That is why an all-keys-lost Subaru is a mail-in module job, not a driveway job.
Which Subarus does this cover?
Roughly 2012–2017 blade-key (G-chip) models: Impreza, WRX, STI, Legacy, Outback, Forester, and Crosstrek/XV, plus the shared-platform BRZ, Toyota 86/GT86, and Scion FR-S. Keyless-access smart-key trims and newer years are confirmed case-by-case — send your VIN and a photo of the BIU label and we tell you before you ship.
