Hi All,
I have just been offered a 1997/8 Audi A4 1.9 TDI from a mate of mine as it's a non runner. I had a look over the car today and I think that the problem of 'starting only for a second' is related to the immobiliser. I have looked inside the fob and it's missing the chip, important part, and its his only key. The local garage told me to take it to an Audi dealer to buy a key/ chip and then let them reprogram. This sounds a little expensive but a definate solution, the only thing is that I need to rent a tow truck to take it there. Is there a way of starting it long enough to drive to the Audi dealerships?
Thanks in advance
