allso on the volvo front my 940 got blocked out but i removed the fuse while it was inactive i got a v70 to sort out soon but thats a dash falior i recon you may be worth sending it in you have spent alot allready for a gusse but it should sort it

I tried that too, the original key and barrel are in use, but its the immobiliser thats activated because of the introduction of the replacement clocks.

I have decided to bite the bullet & called in a professional today, and he took away my clock's and ecu's to his workshop, will know Wednesday what happens

Update:
Well 10 days after the so called specialist came, and took my ecu's and clocks away, I had to keep calling him to chase him and got absolutely nowhere. Got my items back and back to square one. Complete waste of time.

Time to drag it to Audi

UPDATE :

Well, I decided to call another guy out to do my programming, it took this man a few seconds, and he retrieved the pin from the car with his handheld device.

He then programmed keys to it and ....VALLA.... Shoby Car fired straight up! .... YES folks I am pleased to say that Shoby Car is now running and will be on the road soon.
Will take more pics after it's been washed and taxed & tested.

Thank You, just waiting for VIC date now and we're rolling

VIC Certification
Well Ladies (have we any here?) & Gentlemen, I took Shoby car for the VIC test today and as expected it passed, have to wait till monday now to get tax as they have to wait for their computers to be updated.

SO, Shoby Car will (hopefully) be buzzing around London on Monday afternoon!!

Thanks
Sarge
