Having problems with the immobiliser on a Mk 4 Golf. When I put the ignition key in it doesn't always turn off the immobiliser so you can't start the engine. Under these conditions the immobiliser light is flashing. Same with both keys. I believe it's an immo 2.
Sometimes it takes upwards of 10 tries before it works. Usually at the most inconvenient times. Then it's alright again for weeks. Very annoying.

which seems to be the most useful info on the internet on this problem.
I have the key tag with the secret number and a key that will work in the locks. Next time it happens I'd like to try the emergency start procedure in the link above, but not sure which number is the SKC.
There are 2 labels on the key with numbers that might be the SKC.
Is it the 4 digit number behind the scratch off label, or is it the last 4 digits of the 5 digit number that starts with a zero on the other label?
