As for other questions:
Yes tried both remotes - changed batteries - etc
No - No bag phone or any such thing.
At home - near airpot, maybe possibility of radio interferance.
But, does not work in random places / times with or without interferance
I can be two feet away still doesnt work
Lol -> the latest discovery I have made is, if the remote isn't working, give it a couple of sharp taps and bingo, works again.

It is Radio Interference. Mine does it too.
I started noticing that every once in a while when I went to the grocery store my keyless died on me. I figured out that if I park in a specific part of the parking lot they never worked. 20 feet away in another spot they work fine.
I am guessing it's either a neon sign or possibly a microwave that isnt in the best of shape. I don't know what frequency the key fobs run at and I havent put them on my freq counter but I am guessing around 900MHz.
On another note, if I'm feeling cruel (I would never do this
) if I am driving thru a parking lot I can transmit on my 2meter radio pushing 50watts and without fail I will set off car alarms.
Kind of like radio interference, but more of a front end overload on the alarms.
Really freaks people out
