Spare Key & Immobiliser

[Johnsey]

Hi,

I've just found my spare key for my car after it was safely stored after I got the car (4 years ago ) and went to use it and it didnt deactivate the immobiliser.
I'm guessing this is because a long time ago the clocks were changed under warranty because the speedo was sticking, can I re-sync the key to the immobiliser or am I going to have to bend over at the Stealers?

Cheers

I had this when i had a "dash pack" changed, the dealers forgot to tell me to bring down the spare key to be recoded, its a dealer job as they need to get the code.

I just rang them up said that when i had some warranty work done you didn't recode the spare key, and said i was bringing the car in for them to complete the job.

Don't what ever you do pay for it, not your fault they didn't do the job properly.

Bu66er! I'm not driving 100 miles back to them to get them to sort it. Will ring SEAT customer care in the morning and see if they can authorise my nearest stealer to sort it out. Unless it can be done with VAGCOM?

Thanks for the reply.
