So no joy with other threads on my immobileser active fault which happens only some times but looks like if it goes could be costly so can I turn off the immobiliser for good if where can I get it done or can any one do it for me

Don't know where to start don't want to spend loads on keys and clocks so thought would be easy to turn off do u know where or any one that can do it I take it dealers won't do it 

[barrym381]

have a wee look in hear mate might help you an the dealer could do it but would prob be cheaper if you could find some1 local with the software needed
