I got scared that my 20 year old key would fail and brick my car, so I finally broke down and bought a new one last week from the The Bmw Mini Parts Store. Wasn’t inexpensive, but good piece of mind. Now I just worry about some part in the rest of that system failing and bricking my car…EWS, ring antenna, etc. I understand why guys delete the EWS.
