Imobolizer key in water
« on: 09 March 2010, 16:19 »
Just a quick question i've been thinking about if you drop an immobolizer key or a key with a transponder in water would it still start the cat, im thinking of an original VW key with a cobra imobo key??

I know there no batteries in the chips or anything so i couldnt see what harm it would do.

Cheers

If you're drunk, I'd be wondering why the f**k you had your car keys in your hand to begin with..
