Car is 18 months old, 10,000 miles.

Half the time it doesn't unlock or lock and I have to stand there pressing the button multiple times.

On the dash, it kept coming up that the battery needed to be replaced, so I changed the battery for a brand new one. All was fine for about a week, until the error came back and so did the problem.

Tried the spare key, same issue.

Anyone had a problem similar to this before? Or do I just keep buying new batteries every week....

What are the voltages on the batteries when new ?

And what are you getting on the old one’s that are coming out ?

How close are the keys to the car?
