Does the valet key start the vehicle...?

	Anti-Theft Type		BMW EWS® VEHICLE IMMOBILIZER
	Anti-Theft Descript		THE KEY SENDS AN RF SIGNAL TO THE BCM MODULE THROUGH AN ANTENNA LOCATED AROUND THE IGNITION CYLINDER

Im guessing there telling you to use valet key...Because the cost of replacing OEM Key w/ buttons is far more...Will look up some bypasses for you...

You need to give up a key as far as I know the reason why they say valet key is because it is harder to fit the real key in the key coffin. You can just remove the immobilizer chip from the key and put it in the bypass module

Did you take the ring that comes w/ bypass and put it aroung ignition cylider...Post your bypass wiring...? There should be a chip inside your key(not visible to you) that the vehicles need to see to start or stay running...! Call a Key Shop/Locksmith and see what they can make you a "Valet" key for...Put that one in the bypass...
