Key Range

I was just wondering what the average range is for the key remote. Mine seems to be rather short maybe 30 feet or less.

My range seems to vary. Sometimes it will pick up around 30 feet away, and sometimes it will not pick up until I am right next to the car.

mine seems to SUCK...fortunately, driving the vehicle is much more of a plus for me than the range of my remote.

Mine is good for about 100 feet. Holding the key up to your chin really works, your face acts like a reflector to concentrate the keys electronic signal.
