Lost my immobiliser (sorry if spelt wrong)

kink

As title says I have lost my immobiliser (mitsubishi outlander) and now cant get it started. AA phoned, who will be here soon to take to garage. Does anyone know if this is going to cost a fortune to fix and or how long it should take.
Many thanks in advance

A lot will depend on who fitted it. If it's original factory fitted then I'd suspect Mitsubishi will be your best, if most expensive option. They'll be able to re-code, replace keys but will probably charge a small fortune....could be wrong on that though.

If you arranged an independent auto electrics place to fit it then see if they can visit you to temporarily disable it until you get new keys. I had to do this years ago after the local neds tried to steal my car. They broke a few things but the immobiliser stopped them removing the car....but it also stopped me from starting it. I managed to get the local fitter to come to my house and repair it.

Last option wold be to go to ANY auto electrics to see if they can bypass or disable it to allow you to get replacement keys.

But remember if you bypass the immobiliser you'll need to tell your insurance company because if someone takes the car while it's "un-immobilised" the insurance would probably refuse to pay out since you had arranged to bypass the security.
