ok I have finished of the engine conversion on the car and went to go and start it and the immobiliser has kicked in. when I swapped all the internals of the key over I kinda snapped the immobiliser chip half is their any way I can bypass this issue or is it going to have to go to a dealer?

So you got keys, cluster and ecu from the donor? Dont know if a immo defeat would work or not being the key?

Most vw's can have the immobiliser deactivated but you are better off getting a key done for it properly. An auto locksmith can code a chip to your car which will save you a lot of time over the dealer.

it can be done with vag tacho and vag com as far as i know (vag tacho to obtain secret key code and vag com to program the key chip). you will need to buy another chip though, about $5 from ebay...

i'm programming another key tonight as i only had one when i bough the car, i'll let you know if its successful...

re-coded mine yesterday, i had an oh shizzle moment when i reset the keys and then neither of my new keys worked. i went back through the whole process again and now both keys are coded and working with no flashing immobiliser light on the dash...

hit me up if you need any tips...
