Hi Trevor We might just take you up on the Rock and Blues fest offer if we ever get the dam car sorted lol. ATB Rich

Hi Trevor and thanks for taking the time to try and help with this We have tried the spare key with the same results. I am the Gloucestershire clutching at straws champ so I think we will get on fine. Sorry no relation to the Miles Familys of Devon or Somerset as far as I know but I could be calling in for coffee at yours next time i'm passing

Hi Knightsmith The first person to look at it was our son inlaw who admitted he didn't have the necessary software then the AA who were next to useless. We then got hold of an auto electrician from a mobile company called Mottec automotive who did all the diagnostics and was absolutely brilliant but said he had never come across this problem before and has gone away to research it. And no the stripped jumpers are not ours lol.

Can anybody help me? We have recently bought an 04 plate 2.0 ltr Diesel X Type which served us very well on a trip to Cornwall for a fortnight in September clocking up well over a thousand miles without so much as a hiccough. on returning to Gloucestershire there were a couple of times that the car struggled to start but fired eventually and ran trouble free for a few days then repeated the struggle. Two weeks ago the car DIED. All lights on the vehicle show that there is power in the battery but there is nothing getting to the starter motor. Time for professional diagnosis. Professionals say that the diagnostics are showing that the immobiliser is showing that the car is stolen and nobody seems to know what to do next. Can anybody help??????? Thanks in anticipation Rich and Karen.
