Which Dacia models do you support?

We support Dacia Duster, Sandero, Logan, Dokker, Lodgy and most other Dacia models fitted with precode radios.

A precode is a temporary code Dacia radios show on the locked display. It's one letter followed by three digits (e.g. A123). We use it, together with your radio's serial, to calculate your unlock code.

Where do I find the precode on my Dacia radio?

Turn the ignition on without starting the engine. The display shows 'LOCKED' or a padlock symbol, followed by your precode. It's visible immediately, no need to remove the radio.

Why is Dacia's system the same as Renault's?

Dacia is owned by Renault and many Dacia models share Renault's factory radio hardware and precode security system. The precode format and lookup process is identical, which is why the same 4-digit unlock code system applies.

What if my radio doesn't show a precode?

If nothing appears, wait a few seconds after turning the ignition on. Some units take a moment to display it. If it still doesn't appear, your radio may be a different model. Contact us for support.

Can I get the code from Dacia instead?

Yes, but it's slower. Dacia dealers can provide codes once you prove ownership, usually taking several working days. Our £4.99 service delivers instantly online, 24/7.

Frequently asked questions

Do I need the serial number as well as the precode? +

No, just the precode. It's enough for us to identify your radio and calculate the correct 4-digit unlock code. You don't need to remove anything or find a separate serial label.

How many digits is the unlock code? +

Dacia unlock codes are 4 digits (e.g. 1234). Enter it carefully. Most units only allow a handful of incorrect attempts before locking out entirely.

What happens if I enter the wrong code? +

Dacia radios typically allow 3–10 incorrect attempts before locking permanently or requiring a dealer reset. Double-check your precode and the code we send before entering anything.

If the code we provide doesn't work, we offer a 100% money back guarantee. Contact us and we'll sort it out.

Can a Dacia dealer give me the code instead? +

Yes, with proof of ownership (V5C and photo ID), though it's not fast:

several working days is typical
You'll need to visit in person
Some dealers charge a fee for the lookup

Our £4.99 service is instant and available online any time.

Is my information kept private? +

Yes. We only keep what's needed to process your order. Card payments run through Stripe, so we never see or store your card details, and we don't sell or share your data.
