    Thanks problem solved. The Lucas 10AS immobilised had fallen out of sync with the ECU, probably due to low battery conditions. Found a garage with a T4 diagnosis toll that managed to resync it. She`s purring again. For those that dont know the 2.8i was built for the African market...

    Ah , I see! Sorry. Well not really looking to bypass the imobilisor if I can help it ! I was hoping that some someone out there might know this vehicle as it is very rare. Only about 1000 of them ever built and that was in South Africa.
