I have an issue with a 2012 BMW 1 series f20. i bought it cheap and the car has sat for a long time, supposedly due to fuel injector issue. I had no key and needed one making and coded to car. that was done but the key guy could not get the car to turn. the key will not lock the car remotely and to get the dash lights to show you have to hold the key to the steering column at a specific angle to show. and that's all that happens. Any idea what the issue could be? or where to start looking?

Sounds as though the key and the car are not matched code wise, I think you you will find the method on the internet.

Good Luck.
