immobiliser help

[gemmaessex]

hey
jus wondering if anyone knows wots wrong.
brought my car, which came with 2 keys and a key fob. why is it jus one of the keys opens the door and u need the other key to start the engine, thought tht was pretty weird.
also i put some new batteries in the key fob couple of weeks ago and it worked for a while, like opened the doors but didnt lock them. and now the red light on the key fob is not working...can the batteries run out that quickly???
is it worth gettin a new immobiliser system?
Thanks

will be expensive, 2 keys?! both do different things?! sign of a break in maybe? or lock change

how expensive are we talking here... i preferably want one key with buttons on the key. thts probs gunna so so much so.

The locks or ignition barrel have obviously been replaced at some point, hence the two keys.

The batteries in the fob should last for months.

I don't suppose you got a spare with it?

i didnt get a spare with it. cani jus buy one from citroen dealer and get the whole lot done there so i jus use one key? or will any garage do it?
