Hi all! We have been experiencing an issue on site where threads have been missing the latest postings. The platform host Vanilla are working on this issue. A workaround that has been used by some is to navigate back from 1 to 10+ pages to re-sync the thread and this will then show the latest posts. Thanks, Mike.

    I've tested it again this eveing, over and over, and its working perfectly (in other words, it knows when the fob is IN the car, and doesn't lock). I've even put it in the drivers door pocket, and it wouldn't lock, but held it against the door from the outside (i.e. width of the door from being inside) and it knows the difference perfectly every time.

    My wife uses this car as her daily driver, and as a techno-phobe she loves the Keyless and also the integrated bluetooth. When you have a child in your arms getting him into the car twice daily, you'd appreciate the value of this extra.
    Ditto for bags of shopping, you walk to the boot, and its already open.

    anyhoo, life goes on .....

    yep, but there was nothing, and it wasn't as if I pelted it into the car. Also, the buttons take a firm press.
    Will put it down to a freak for now, and watch to see if it happens again.
