The range on my key fobs is crap!

[GreaseLightning]

I have to usually come within 5-or-so metres of the car before it works, sometimes a bit more depending on the angle, but it is very picky. Sometimes I'll be right alongside the car before it works.

I've had this problem for a long time now, I had the batteries changed a while back but this made no difference. Any bright ideas of other possible causes?

If you put the fey fob against for head, you will be able to unlock the car from further away, really! It works....think i seen Clarkson doing it...?

Don't know what long term effects it has on your brain though :lol: Maybe being able to think the car open....:lol:

New batteries usually help also.
