About Citroën Car Key Systems — BSI Module, Berlingo & Dispatch Van

Citroën vehicles use the same BSI (Boîtier de Servitude Intelligent) module architecture as Peugeot — both are Stellantis group brands sharing the same central body computer for immobiliser functions. All Citroën key programming involves synchronising new transponders to the BSI module via advanced diagnostic equipment.

Citroën's proximity key system — available on C5 X, C5 Aircross, and C4 from Shine grade — uses encrypted fob coding via the BSI. On post-2019 Citroën models, SERMI certification is required for manufacturer immobiliser security access. Lee programmes all Citroën proximity keys on-site across Ancoats, Openshaw, and all of Greater Manchester.

The Citroën Berlingo and Dispatch vans are among the most common commercial vehicles in Manchester. The Berlingo III (2018+) shares its platform with the Peugeot Partner K9 and Vauxhall Combo E. The Dispatch III (2016+) shares with the Peugeot Expert K0 and Toyota Proace. Lee covers both vans on-site at your depot. Full information at citroen.co.uk ↗.
