remote unlock |
|
|
A4 but it matters not I think,
I had terrible problems activating my remote unlock a few days back. Ended
up pushing car into my industrial building and shutting the door before it
would deactivate. Fob had new batteries fitted.
Local grain drier building is equipped with about 30 mobile phone
transmitters that must be causing the problem.
Had the same with a Suzuki a few years back in the same spot. Sold it now.
any precautions for this problem
anyone else have problems when near these antenna

I heard about lots of people having problems with car remotes near the
Trafford Centre near Manchester (UK) because of nearby tansmitters (not
sure what type). It din't seem to affect any make of car especially.

thanks for reply.
I contacted our local council and they said tough, the transmitter companies
pay a huge fee and as I don't go get a security system that is not affected
by them...........how short sighted they are.

I'm sure that the regulatory body ought to be concerned but, according
to this page, Ofcom aren't going to take the slightest interest -

There's a street in Cambridge (Massachusetts, USA) where both
Audi and BMW remotes are unreliable.
I use the key and hope that I never have a problem while the locks
are stuck or inaccessible. I wish more doors had mechanical locks.
