The immobiliser and central locking are two seperate systems. my cars key can be programmed to your central locking to unlock your doors! however, my key would not have been coded to the immobiliser.

Start with your spare key, that key might start the car! if it doesnt, then you need to consider the further worries!

good to hear you got it going, but think your forgetting something went wrong to make it go into limp in the first place.

a lot of those codes could have been set after the initial fault, for future reference, you should always make a note of any codes before deleting as they all help to pin a problem if it reoccurs.

ecu wont have been deleted, only its memory, which it will relearn on its own whilst your driving..dont be suprised if you get a few minor glitches whilst driving in next few days, this is normal and will smooth out over time.

you might need to think about original problem, something caused it to go wrong to begin with, small possibility of it being a one off, but to me, this is screaming a major power failure somewhere. i would keep a regular check for fault codes till your confident nothing is happening

Glad the car is started, but if I was you, I would keep your friends number on speed dial, as you may need him again.

far too many reasons to list.

codes will need reading again, but this time make a note of all of them before clearing..

when they have been cleared, run the engine for a while then check codes again..if no codes reappear, then take for drive and then check again.

Agreed. You should never clear a code without making a note of it EVER! :)
