Default My $.02: if you received a little plastic "HideAKey" you don't have Immobilizer...

Here's my logic:
Dealer, upon delivery, gave me keys. 2 key/remotes, 1 valet key, and 1 little plastic walletable key. If the care has and immobilizer, then there is no way that little plastic key would ever work. Thus, they wouldn't give you that key if you had an immobilizer.

Side Note 1) Unless of course it is just to unlock the car if you locked your real keys inside...
Side Note 2) When using VAG-COM, I DO get a response from something on the immobilizer channel. However, upon querying the central locking unit, it says there is no immobilizer... Sigh...

The hide-a-key actually has a chip inside it (someone posted an X-ray pic: do a search)

but I have no light & VAG-COM software can not get response - I was duped.
