I've used a few remote locking things before and all of them seem to have much better range than the fiats.
My dads skoda seems to have greater than 50 metres.
What's the furthest anyones got? and is there a trick to boosting the range?

jeremy did a test of how to boost range.the idea of when you blip,hold the fob against your head.your head acts as an amplifier and you get more range

Maybe mine is running out of batteries or something, not sure how to change them or if it spoils the settings
I think i'll avoid doing anything clarkson does if it's all the same...

mine worked from maybe 20m away but now its more like 2m - time for some new batteries.
after youve unlocked it, does the led light on the dash stay on until u start the car? if so this means the keyfob batteries are dying.

Is that a double shot, assassin style?
I havn't noticed the red light flashing but i'll look when i try tonight.
I can barely get it to unlock from 5 metres.
What batteries does it take and will it mess up any settings by just swapping for a new battery?
