Key fob has suddenly increased in range
Several months back I increased the antenna length on the Puma's alarm only to find it did nothing to improve things Sad Still very short distance. Last week I had to get a new lock set installed as the ignition barrel had collapsed. Now, after getting the car back, I can unlock it from about 20m away Confused Confused

So I suspect there must have been something loose that was rectified by the new ignition lock. The same immobiliser ring is in use though but of course everything was taken off to replace the lock. The driver's and back door locks were also exchanged and I have new key's but the same fob.

So I guess it may be worth investigating under the steering column covers if your fob range is limited. 110 2.4TDCi
110 300Tdi
