There are companies that can replace your fob such as this ,but im not sure if it has to be working for them to reprogramme a new one

I would try a new battery first.

Just put a new battery in the fob, and it seems to be working a lot better now then the old battery.
Thanks a lot for your help :)

what i did in this situation is waited to get stuck at side of the road then called the RAC out they bypassed the immobiliser for the grand charge of £0 might be worth a try when it plays up bad
