I had this too, the dealer needed to reset and reprogram both keys and it was sorted.

I have this every now & again, the bigger problem is the drivers window dropping half way nearly every time I enter or exit the car!

Mines been in for repgramming and they must have done the iris system as well as it’s not too clever with iPhone XS Max latest version as Bluetooth goes off after 1-2 minutes on every call

I’ve got the window drop too...a lot. Going to ascot in Jan for first service so hopefully they’ll sort. You can press and hold the keyless close button by the door and it will put both the windows up so a bit less of a pain when gettting out....

Sounds silly but try pushing the brake pedal very hard, it worked for me when I had this issue with a 570 coupe

If that’s the case it could be a faulty break light switch.

If it’s like any other car its attached to the top of the break pedal.

That’s a separate issue, if it says that the key can’t be found, that’s a problem in itself, If it doesn’t say there’s a problem with the key, that’s when not pressing the brake pedal hard enough can be the issue.
