well its been a cpl of weeks and still no car bk they are now saying its my imobaliser she just wont fire up just keeps turning over , if you unlock her with the key thob and just sit in her without putting the keys in straight away she wont start , but cum bk to her nxt morning and she fires up first time , and if you leave her unlocked for a few seconds she wopnt fire up , so the garage are saying imobilser problem they have checked wireing and all is ok , can anyone help or can the imobiliser be removed
 
if it was the immobiliser, it wouldn't turn over. thinking maybe cam sensor, but faulty injectors can also cause starting problems.

have they had it connected to test book (or similar) ?
 
ready to be corrected but....

the immobiliser works by using a chip in the key, with a search coil around the ignition barrel. when the coil sees the chip, it allows the car to start.

have you tried the other key ? (not teaching you to suck eggs, but...)
 
when it's turning over, try easy start into the air inlet. I know i know I KNOW it's a bad thing, but if it then starts and runs, it will give you a pointer, could be injector or cam sensor.
