Your key / remote...
What kind of range do you get out of the remote ? Lately I notice my key / remote has very limited range, on few occasions I'm standing like 10 feet away and I still can't unlock the doors, before I could unlock my car from 10 parking spaces away probably.

Comfort access remotes do not get charged by plugging them into the key fob slot. You have to replace the battery in the fobs once they die (about every 2 yrs according to my CA)

CA keys have batteries which need to be replaced on occasion, and the non-CA keys charge in the key holder.

range prob 40 feet to lock/unlock
the comfort access range SUCKS. i have to be within around 5 feet to open/lower the top. if i'd of known this i wouldn't have gotten C.A......seems worthless if you have to be close enough to touch the car anyway.

If I need extras distance (like when I want to also roll down windows as I'm walking towards the car), I just hold the fob to my chin and press the unlock button. It probably doubles the range.
