Title: 2 button key fob new/repair
Post by: Hoffi on 25 September 2008, 19:50:03
Hi all,
my key fob is getting on my nerves!  >:( Quite embarrassing when in a car park, the fob not working and then opening the car via the lock with alarm going off when opening the door.  :-[

I found a thread that a Martin Imber does a repair job on those fobs.  As I have two fobs, one working occasionally and one not working at all it might be worth having a refurb done on them. Unfortunately I couldn't find him in the member list.  :question

Any recommendations where to buy a new one and do not invest a fortune?

With the three key fob from which I understood that this third button opens the boot: What work is involved to get that function on board?

Would be grateful for recommendations!

The Hoffi

Really? I think its a pain in the arse myself. If the boot popped fully open i think that would be an improvement over the pre f l model which was easier, just lift the boot by the handle. Face lift, hand in pocket press button, but not too quickley after removing from ignition or it wont work, AND then lift boot by the handle. Dont see how its an impotenent over the old boot button?

Im not allowed in Asda. Im "too grumpy"  and shes being polite, forget road rage, shopping rage!
Bloody place does my head in. She cant even leave even me in the dvd section with out getting run over by a gran and her trolly. The place is a nightmare. Stay away.

Tescos does this for me, Morrisons and Asdas are a haven of peace in comparison

let me tell you that tesco,asda,morrisons etc are absolute heaven compared to Eroski, carrefor,lidl,and Dia over here, picture the scene
all are hypermarkets all are huge,all have approximately 30 checkouts,
and all have only 6 checkout operators!!! >:( you can take half an hour to get your shopping and at least an hour to pay for it by which time your frozen goods arent!!!! >:( mind you the spanish senoritas doing the shopping wear very little :y and can easily take your mind off the queues  :y but if you get caught ogling cue a sore ear!!!
