    Anyone know of anyone with a VAG-COM diagnostic set up in Waterford City? I have a dead Audi which needs an immobiliser fault clearing.

    I tried Trevor Madigan but his phone seems to on permanent voice mail.

    Try This.
    Switch on ignition, and leave switched on for 15 minutes, then try starting again. Usually works.

    Did the key come apart at any stage?
    Do a quick check of the fuses as well.

    I've been in touch with a chappie who knows about this sort of thing and the key probably needs resynching or recoding.
