Ok, that would seem to rule out the inside sensor. Hopefully when your new fob comes that will help!
Also, I wouldn't consider buying if it hasn't already been retitled from salvage to rebuilt. It varies by state, but you will likely have to go...
I have to say I'd be tempted, particularly if you can beat them down any further on price. On the plus side that's a killer deal on a PIP. On...
The wind turbines in OK were particularly cool, as they were in the process of being constructed. Got to see a number of the components on the...
A few pics from my "maiden voyage", driving our salvage/rebuilt '05 home from Steve Woodruff's in IN to AZ in 2007. Mostly freeway, but following...
Your mileage does seem low, highway driving at 55-60mph should still yield more like 50mpg on a Gen 2. How long is your typical trip? Short...
Yeah, the door sensors are hard to get at. I think focusing on the inside sensors makes sense. I don't know what to make of the panic button...
Both inside sensors are pretty easy to get at. The center console one is hidden behind the rear cup holder. Lower the cup holder, apply pressure...
IMHO there are pros and cons to both approaches. A truly platform agnostic solution is desirable, but then you are basically back to the...
Its interesting, after a few years in Phoenix our '08 had this issue as well. The material over the button was sticky and had worn through...
Ok, interesting. I'm not sure that's conclusive, but it would seem to point to the inside sensors working. Its still possible that the rear...
FYI, I did try starting the '05 with the keys in the trunk and no go until they were right up against the back seat (presumably where the center...
IMHO a lot of these categories don't make much sense, because the consumer demands they are trying to meet don't make much sense ;)
I believe so. The ignition sensor (center console) should be what tells it the key is inside, I don't think the door sensor knows the difference....
Re: weight, it seems like a lot of it is size. Its very similar to the X3 (rather than X1) in ext dimensions, weight and price. The BMW is...
FYI this works for me on an '05. Looks like a good way to test with a single fob. Here's what I did, sequencing may be important?: - open...
Could be, but I've found the LED brightness on the FOB to be a decent indicator of battery health. When mine were low I couldn't see the LED at...
Could be something wrong, but note that the lift struts that help lift the gate can be less effective in cold weather. This makes the hatch feel...
It certainly sounds like it could be the internal proximity sensor. The fact that you can get in the car with the smart key seems to say the fob...
Getting to full charge is no big surprise on a long down hill, as mentioned above the regen can kick out 10kW on a steep down grade and the usable...
