It better bloody had sell for more then 250 even!!!! Or else I WILL feel done by!!

Id far rather have a S2 Xantia then a S1, with that blydi awfull keypad immobilser!!

Andrew, have you a S2 V6 to swap for a S1 V6??


Paul

No, but I could do you an Activa or a CX!

Andrew

No leather in Activa Andrew...


Paul

Yes there is! Not in the Cx mind!

Andrew

Not OVER keen on the 2.oi Turbo engine.. rather a V6.. Activa TOOOOOO thirsty for me.. but I know, its the only STANDARD Way to sample ARCS!!

Paul

I have cars now to make a V6 Activa but don't fancy converting one either way to make a combo.
The V6 unit in the Activa bodyshell seems the easier way to go. Or just keep two different cars!!

I'm guessing a green s2 Exclusive 2.0i 16v s2 estate with AC/roof/leather
or a green s2 Exclusive 1.9TD saloon with AC/roof/wood/leather
would be right up your street then?

Andrew

Paul,

Pull the key pad put... Enter code, start engine, pull plug put of key pad, hey presto.

Unless there are other reasons after doing this that make you uneasy?

Paul.

You know you could just disconnect the keypad after entering the correct code and throw it away for ever.
Put that handy little mobile phone tray in it's place instead!

Andrew

What happens if the battery goes flat? would it not want a code put back in

Norman

Hi Norman,

The code is stored in the ECU permanently until a keypad is installed in the car again, then you have to re-enter the code.

I did this to my Xantia a couple of years ago now and have had no problem with it ever since. Battery out at various time.
