After the engine work and car sitting for a long time, started, shut off and no start
Hi,
My car was at a shop for a timing chain tensioner replacement.
They dropped the subframe, replaced everything, including spark plugs, put the subframe back up and according to them started the engine.
According to them it ran for a bit and shut itself off.
Since then they could not start it again.
Does immobilizer do that - starts, runs, shuts off and no restart?

Wouldn't using the actual key bypass the immobilizer?
I also don't think the immobilizer would cause the car to turn itself off while it was running. That would be a huge liability issue if it ever malfunctioned.
