If it's not one thing it's another with this car.

Basically just over a month ago the main key for my W12 was stolen (amongst other stuff) when my house was broken into. My W12 is now with Audi and has been for over a week now to get a complete new Lockset fitted, roughly a whole days job but like I said it's been there for over a week, first waiting for some more rivets to come in for the door panels but then after everything is fitted and back together they come to code it all and the car apparently just keeps throwing itself into Safe Mode every time they try so they then have to wait 15 minutes to try again and the same thing happens. I haven't spoken to them now since Monday when they told me this was happening. I'm going to give them a call tomorrow or Saturday to see whats happening now but before I do does anyone have any ideas as to why this might be happening or even come across this before?

I wondered if this might also be related:
