    audi alarm and immobiliser.

    i dont have access to vag-com, but i know a man that does. Will give this a go, tis so frustrating Just need it to work for 4 more weeks, including a treck down to bristol and back, then its being sold anyway, hence the quick fix needed rather than an expensive audi repair bill.

    A3 1.8T Front strut brace?
