Unhappy

Guys,
Does anyone know if the key fob range of the standard alarm fitted to the wrx03 can be increased?
I have to stand with the key pressed against the windscreen for it to work.
I don't think it's the battery because it happens with both fobs.

Thanks in advanced...

Take the car back to the dealer and ask 'em to check the antenna location.

There's a strong chance they'll tell you it's interference from mobile phone masts, so make sure you've tested this in many locations first

Mine is the same - only works when im stood next to the car.

Could be a security feature so it dosent open when it gets pressed in your pocket.
