Welcome to the club mate. Nice little win!

Welcome to the club mate!

Good job mate! They come up quite often so shouldn’t take you too long to find a nice one. What’s yours current car?

Hi mate, welcome to the club. Just seen a couple on eBay for around the £30 mark. Really easy to change.

It happens on every 197/200. Common issue. You get used to it in the end. If it bothers you, get it remapped or let your car warm up for a couple of minutes before leaving.

Have you tried to resync the keys? As above, I don’t have much knowledge with the MK4’s but if the 197 keys mess up slightly, I think you press the unlock button five times in a row?

To unlock? You shouldn’t need to press anything to unlock it? (If it’s like the 197 etc). You press the button on the door handle once to lock it when walking away.

Welcome to the club. What “hints” are you looking for? Release clutch to the biting point and apply throttle? Here to help.

I’m not sure who they are but I’m sure they’ll be able to help and fingers crossed it’s relatively simple like a bad earth.

Immobiliser light shouldn’t stay solid so there’s the issue.

Bad starter motor is what I’d check.

NOD32

Im sure the “passcode options” link where you can change between 4/6/alphanumerical is in the settings when you go to set a passcode, not when you’re locked out. @Pistachio - sorry, not overly sure what else would trigger it. I’m only aware of remote locking causing it to have 6 on occasion

I’m sure one of the “locked” features (stolen mode etc) options is to require a 6 digit for some reason or another.

As @Craig pointed out mate, just make sure you have given it all the permissions it needs.

Just sounds purely like an alignment issue as @White16valver pointed out. Just have a fiddle about (no homo) and see if you can get it to line up.

Brilliant advice Don, what do you reckon OP should do? Put his engine in the boot and head on up there? 🤣

Yeah, that alternator shouldn’t be moving like it is!

It's all in jest mate, your time will come where you see something that offends you so much your forum-tourettes comes out!

Really like this mate. Adds loads of character. The character being tinman from Wizard Of Oz.

Swap it out, piece of cake on these.

Welcome back to the club mate

The 197 does require deep pockets, both for maintenance and fuel. (I average 19mpg at the mo.) Test drive both and see what you prefer. The 197 is definitely more “luxurious” but in the same breath it’s also a lot lot heavier.
