hello.
having a starting problem with my range rover. i got told it was the starter motor so i had a friend come round to check it out.
he got under the car and i dont know what he done some kind of metal contact with a hex key and he got it to start up. it fired up and came on but only for a few seconds. he got out and told me it was the immobliser and would need to be bypassed or reprogrammed he said you can run a wire through with a switch to bypass it. just want to know would this be a good idea or could it damage the car?
also ive heard alot of people say when your immobiliser has gone you wont see a "check engine" light on your dash. but am still seeing the light and am getting no messages telling me about any problems so am not 100% sure it is the immobiliser??
any advice would be great thanks
