Okay, I now know how to pronounce it, and I've now bought myself one -- a 1999 1.4 Chequers version. I seem to be having problems though with the key/ignition/electronics, and would appreciate some advice. When I unlock the door, get in the car and put the key in the ignition it won't turn. I fiddle about for perhaps half a minute before it finally does. On other occasions a similar thing happens when I try to unlock the boot. Is this normal? Am I doing something wrong? And what is the couple of beeps I hear just after switching off the engine and removing the key -- is it the immobiliser coming into play? Help!
Have another look at the wording of the posts, son. Mark, 'Mel40', was not aware of my having more than one key. Anything useful to contribute?
The alarm siren is poorly - they go wrong quite often - it beeps to say there is an internal battery fault - if you get the fault codes read it would probably be code 121. As for your key issue - if both keys play up it looks like a lock issue - just check the keys aren't bent - you can buy locks to key number so you have all the locks the same but if you are going to change the ignition and boot lock it might work out cheaper to get a lock set with all locks supplied - you need to check with your local dealer for prices. Hope this helps
Thanks for that. I've tried putting the key in the ignition and then waiting a few seconds before turning. So far it has been successful! Not quite so easy with the boot lock though, I still need to fiddle about before it unlocks. Thanks for your ideas and suggestions. I guess I should now check out the alarm system.
