Check the battery in your fob. Mine works pretty easy across our parking garage, by about 100ft or so.

Works at least 5-6 houses down for me. Which is a good 300+ feet.
 
Well I knew that I just want to know what FOB stands for (bird)

Well... I could give you the Asian definition. Hmm... =p

The range of my unit doesn't seem to be any less than the Acura one, so I'm not complaining. I remember the range of the remote starter that I installed in my sister's car was ridiculous (@ 350+ ft); I'm happy as long as I don't have to use my keys to get in and out. *^_^*
 
Of course, this needs to be adressed in the bigger picture...

How are you fogetting where you park your car?
 
yeah seriously i have an 04 and mine works a good 200-300 ft away it blows peoples mind how far away i can use my fob... and mine is old try the other one as it should have come with 2 or change the battery?? do you have something infront of the receiver in on your dash?
 
the key fob to chin thing actually gets mine to lock the doors when im in my house and the car is outside in the detached garage
 
You'd be suprised how many people forget where they park!!

Specially those fresh off the boat... Im telling you the dork that decided to call them FOBs was the same one that loved to say FAB back in the 60's... Fukin A' Bob to **** Off Bob....I dont carry a pocket watch so dont see how this would be an ornament for a pocket watch...

And mine has pretty good range btw... at least 100 ft...
 
My remote works pretty well too, even from inside my house. Next time I'm in a big parking lot, I'll try the chin thing.
 
i hate that i dont have a turbo! but i love that i can pump 87 saving me like 15 bucks every gas tank! somethimes even more! f**kin gsa is gettine expensive!!!
other than that i love my 3!
