Has anyone ever had a problem with the 25/ZR unlocking it'self ?
Locked up last night, this morning the wife said I left the car open.

It may be I caught the fob and opened without knowing,
I might be going mad,

Yes, I think you're round the twist m8


<It's suprisingly easy to unlock/lock the car accidentally, done it myself>

No worries.

Cheers, glad to know nothing wrong with the ZR,

although guess I should have realised I was going mad when I said yes to the wife using the car ! :doh: :iwstupid:

I'm gonna chime in here

there has been many times I've come down stairs in the morning, gone out to the car and gone, "wtf, its open, but I deff. locked it the night before"

it happend 3 or 4 times and I was going to go back to the dealer and say "look I'm not that much of a muppet, somethings going on here"

but it stopped happening, so I guess I am a muppet :lol:

I can lock/unlock my car (parked on the drive) from my hallway.

My god, that's far better than mine!

I have to be 2/3 metres away for it to stand any chance of working

I'm still working on my little 'project', a VW/Audi Flick type key for a ZED

Got the key now......just gotta figure out a way of cannibalising it :lol:

Dave that makes two of us

I'm currently at the attaching the key onto the old slab of metal (old VAG key cut off)

the problem appears to be that it doesnt give a very strong bond and the size prevents wielding it :( Its on hold till after christmas when I will get round to completing it

will do its abit annoying as I now have a key fob that works with a flicky out thing but with the actual key part in my other hand, once I've worked out a way of getting them to stick together I'm laughing
