ok thanks for the responses.

Clearly the radio is secondary for me at the moment so will drop that for now.. the immobiliser issue is the main thing i need to sort and so if i understand correctly:
- the transponder (I understand that to be the key ?) is faulty, i am almost certain that is fine as i cannot think of a point where that would have suffered any damage in the past couple of weeks
- the coil on the ignition barrel and the connection for that can be duff - this sounds like mire likely

i will speak with 4rings

so just one last question, (assuming it is not the coil on the ignition barrel) can the instrument cluster be replaced simply, and reprogrammed to marry up with the car ? Assuming so does anyone have one for sale ?

i have left this thread in the wanted section (due to the instrument cluster possible need) although appreciate some of this is technical help also.

again, thanks for any advice
