Would have thought it would be a bit of a headache mate,as its all tied in with the alarm system.Why not diagnose the fault and fix it. ;)

Right. Lets settle this once and for all.  Post 1996 immobilisers cannot be bypassed. Its coded to the engine management.

So:

It appears you've lost the transponder?

Do you have a carpass?

Are you near a Tech2 (see my sig)?


If yes to all of above, contact nearest tech2 owner (they may be able to get transponder for you).

Search the area you last took key apart for the small chip.
