yeh people are saying dont touch them, but if i dont what else am i supposed to do, someone local to me has a set of fobs for my car now, ive changed the locks and ignition barrell but they can still open my car.
my only other option would be to sell the car to someone who lives no where near me, that way it woudn't matter would it so what do i do

Hang on - think you're getting your posts mixed up here mate.. I think Jay was saying to Rudedogg not to bother having it hooked up to T4 just for the sake of it and not referring to the garage, you have no choice but to take it to a dealer to sort it out, you've done all the hard bits by changing the lock/barrel, the synching of the scu and fobs is easy....

rsm and ross with the charged zed say that messing with the ecu can disrupt the scu, and if this happens it works out a massive and costly job. my plan was to sell the zed in april anyway for a 180, just dont wanna end up splashing out hundreds when im going to sell it anyway

You just need the Body controller (is the face lift model's SCU, these are now integrated together) to give access to the new fobs, you dont need to mess about with the engine ECU.
