Folks,
At the weekend, I encountered a strange one - the damn key stopped working the remote central locking.
I unlocked the car on the key, and silenced the alarm using the ignition (still got a few funny looks from passers by...). Interesting it it was raining really bloody hard, and I had a bit of a sense of humour failure!
Anyway, first chance I had, I pulled into Strathstone BMW in Hull ( I was in the area anyway) they took a look at the key, and advised that it charges itself up when in the ignition barrel, so should not really have any problems. And no sooner had I pointed them to the car, and predictably, it worked flawlessly.
Has anyone else had a problem with their key?
Cheers
