URGENT - Lost keys
 
Hello neighbors. Yesterday my car was stolen in front of my eyes on a gas station (I left the keys inside) but police got it back quite quickly. While escaping a thief had an collision with motorcyclist, left the car soon after and and police caught him when he was running away. He threw the keys away when running and these have not been found.
That was my only set of keys...

I had a simple key and remotely controlled immobiliser. Do you know if there is any specialist around that would be able to open the car and deal with the alarm/immobiliser system and cut the key for me?

I would really appreciate your help. Police is waiting to get the car opened to take fingerprints so I need to sort it out as soon as possible.

Sorry to hear that mate, but you left your keys in your car ? WTF ?

what year is the car? is it uk model? you can buy the key from subaru off a chasis number and you can re code it with diagnostic equipment.
monks heath will be the closest to you, we maybe able to help at autotecnica buxton subaru centre.

Hi scooby2nr, it's 2000 UK model. There was an immobilliser activated by key fob (Toad alarm) but I have no idea whether I had also OEM immobilliser with a transponder in a key. I will call and ask Monks Heath what they can do.

scooby2nr 18 October 2011 03:48 PM

it will have the transponder in the key, if you are struggling i can order a key and re-code it, there is also a toad alarm fitter in buxton.
thanks adam
