Default Nanocom/Hawkeye vs D2 security systems

I have a couple of problems with my 2003 D2 V8 after it suffered a flat battery.

The battery was totally flat and seemed to have deadlocked the car, but I was able to get in via an unlocked rear door and jump start it.

The radio is now asking for the code and I don't have the card for it - I also don't have the EKA code and my remote fob now won't lock or unlock the doors.

So, I was wondering: how much of the security stuff can I turn off with Nanocom or Hawkeye?

Can I immobilise the immobiliser (so that it never activates)?
Can I prevent it deadlocking?
Can I resynch my fob?
Can I interrogate the ECU to find the EKA code?
Can I decode/unlock the Alpine stereo?
Can I stop the doors locking as I drive off?

Hear in Abu Dhabi theft of cars (or from them) is almost unheard of because people are terrified of being deported so I would be OK to reduce the level of security to the lowest possible levels.

Any ideas? Thanks

I don't think it's possible to do this with either scanner, at least no tcompletely.

Can I prevent it deadlocking?

Either will disable superlock.

Can I resynch my fob?

Either will do this, but nanocom does it better and you have more control over how it does it.

Can I interrogate the ECU to find the EKA code?

Nanocom only, unless hawkeye has added this recently. In the past they said they would because they thought it would increase theft.

Can I decode/unlock the Alpine stereo?

I don't think this is even possible. You need a code from the dealer.

Can I stop the doors locking as I drive off?

Either will do this.

Thanks for the reply - I guess I'll be buying a Nanocom then
