Default MG TF 'lost' immobiliser

A friend of mine has an 03 plate TF, and at the end of last week, it decided to have a bit of a hissy fit regarding the immobiliser - the key fob lost connection to it.

No problem, he thought, change battery in fob, and re-sync. Err no, it wont re-sync, just sets off the alarm.

Tried a 30 minute battery off, and it's the same. Tried a battery off all weekend, and still the same.

Contacted a company to get a EKA code, only to be told that as the car dealer who sold it didn't fully do the paperwork, no code can be given.

He's a little but peeved to say the least. Any ideas how we can get his car back to being a car other than a very large paperweight?

Cheers all
