[QUOTE="cloudbuster, post: 443784, member: 6653"] Just a crazy idea / question here on whether we can disengage the immobilizer. If we have a key which is semi-faulty where the remote control is defective but the transponder is still ok, can we do the following?: 1. remove the old transponder and place it right next (maybe glue it underneath) to the key hole. 2. And then purchase a few cheap new keys from ebay/china and synchronize it ourselves to get the remote working. 3. Get the new key cut from a local locksmith. 4.Take out the new transponder from the new key and put it away for storage. 5. With the old transponder still next to the key hole, insert the new key and start the car. Will this start the car? If it do work, the downside to this would be having the immobilizer rendered useless. The upside to this is that we can afford to have buy a lot of cheap spare keys. [/QUOTE]
