Picked my new to me Evora up from Silverstone today - what nice people.

According to the service notes and manual I should have an alarm serial number, 4 digit key code and a 5 digit immobiliser PIN, all of which would have been on a plastic tag that I don't have.

What I do have is a 6 digit number written again 'key number' in the service book and in the format 'Tnnnnnn'. Before I call them up can anyone tell me what the T-number is for and confirm I am actually missing some info?

Ta.

I spoke to the excellent Robert at Silverstone this morning who requested it from Lotus and within an hour I was sorted. It seems that the Tnnnnnn number replaces the four digit key number (possibly by including the code for the immobiliser) and I now have the emergency PIN. Top service.

Hi .. first off many thanks for your earlier replies.. On a happier note I take it that like me you've just bought an Evora? in which case congrats.. Day 2 for me.. if only it would stop raining so I could enjoy it.

I believe the dealers have to pay a fee to Lotus to get the codes but if you get no joy from whoever you asked it might be worth contacting a main dealer to see if they can help.
