Re: ignition cylinder replacement
If you have the factory fitted immobiliser and it's working then you will need a correct working fob to re-mobilise the engine.
A LR dealer can supply programmed fob so can people as Remote Key there are a few others on the www.

Anyway, they go back today and later on this week I will do some exploring ...

Window and Door Trim
Am now beginning to do basic work on the 300TDi and have a couple of questions:
1. I replaced the window regulator the other month as the two nylon wheels within the runner had snapped and the window dropped. I bought a secondhand regulator and all was well for a few weeks. The other day, there was a horrible noise ...
Re: Window and Door Trim
1. A fairly common problem with the nylon wheels breaking up.

You can by the clips on ebay or from a dealer....
