2004 1.5 Immobiliser problems - JaggyG
I am looking for some advice and too see if anybody has had the same problem with nissan almera immobiliser. My car is in the garage at the moment and is going to cost a fair bit which i am really not happy about. the car its self although its now 3 and a half years old has only done 22000 miles.

My immobilser will not recognise any of keys so it will not start. I was told by the RAC that it needs re-coded. The garage have tried this today and it has not cleared the problem. they are now telling me the next thing to do will be to re-place the decoding ring? and this may not sort it.

my bill so far is 2 hours labour at £110 and £180 for the decoding ring plus another hours labour at £55 total is £345, and they still cant guarantee this will fix the problem.

Does anybody have any advice or has had simmilar experience with immobiliser problems?

I am a very dissapointed in nissan and will never own one again, the vehicle has been hassle after hassle since i got a year ago.

Thanks in advance

Graeme
