Hi, i need help i have a audi a3 1.8 sport 97 model.. my baby.
the problem is this... Whenever i put the key in the engine starts then the immobiliser kicks in and switches the engine off again. I got this tested in which the guy said i have a major fault in the key and need to get the key replaced.
I cannot afford this right now audi are quoting me just over 200 pound for this.
I would like to know if i can either bypass or turn off the immobiliser until i can afford to sort it, or is there another place or way to get the key fixed without having to get a new one and have it programmed by audi.
I would prefer to find a way to turn off or bypass immobiliser.
My key works it the locks and still turns the car on. i have tried fiddling with the key and removing it from the barrel and tried again but it continually switches of in 1 min of turning on.
Thanks for reading
