997 keys - operating in pocket?
Discussion
It might seem a very trivial thing on what’s an otherwise amazing car however the key on my 997 Turbo is driving me mad. Basically when I put the key in my pocket and walk around or sit down it’s clearly causing the lock / unlock button to activate. If the car’s in range it’s unlocking it. Twice this week alone I’ve parked the car outside client’s offices gone for meetings in rooms overlooking the car park and come out to find the doors and boot unlocked. The buttons clearly stand out some way from the key.
It’s been my habit for many years to always have the car keys in my pocket and it’s the first car where this has ever been an issue. I don’t want to have to carry the keys in my hands and given the number of places I go during a working day would undoubtedly but the key down and leave it if I did so.
Anyone else have this? Don’t suppose there’s a solution?

Same here. Any time I bent down to pick up the shopping the doors unlocked. These where with older keys however (grey and black plastic). I had one set changed to the newer key, which is completely black, same style but a bit more sturdy. Hasnt happened with the newer style key - I think the buttons require slightly more pressure, as opposed to a gentle wind passing over the old set.
