Re: Keyless Entry

I have removed the 'dummy key' from the ignition slot thingy so: (a) it no longer looks to a casual passer-by that the keys have been left in the car, in the ignition, and (b) I have to insert the key fob into the slot and twist it to start the car in good-old time-honoured fashion. So that end of t...

Re: Keyless Entry

So - with Keyless Entry Protector you have to tap the fob, wherever you have placed it - in your pocket or bag or whatever - twice, and within a specified time period, and with a certain amount of force. Hmmm. If only someone could come up with something simpler. Like... a key fob that you can press...

Interesting information as it confirms that the air-suspension which is fitted as standard to US-spec GTS cars is 10% stiffer than the air-suspension fitted to US-spec S models. It would seem logical to assume that the...
