The thing i hate most about my 3

[RgI]

The key fob! the thing has no range seriously. ill prob end up putting aclifford on it once i have the money but mazda what were you thinking when you made it so i cant even use the locking honk to find my car in a parking garage unless im two cars away from it!!

[Sierra117]

Check the battery in your fob. Mine works pretty easy across our parking garage, by about 100ft or so.

Wtf Is Fob?

Wtf Is Fob?

It's the remote door un-locker. I would have thought anyone from the Twin Cities would have known that! Unless you are from St. Paul.(poke)

Well I knew that I just want to know what FOB stands for (bird)

Works at least 5-6 houses down for me. Which is a good 300+ feet.

Well... I could give you the Asian definition. Hmm... =p

The range of my unit doesn't seem to be any less than the Acura one, so I'm not complaining. I remember the range of the remote starter that I installed in my sister's car was ridiculous (@ 350+ ft); I'm happy as long as I don't have to use my keys to get in and out. *^_^*

hold it to your chin when you press it. Your skull will act as an anntennea.

LOL. I did that this morning for the first time and it worked. I usually use my 16oz can of monster (which also works)

[Sierra117]

Of course, this needs to be adressed in the bigger picture...

How are you fogetting where you park your car?

[SwampAss]

Mine is in regard to not remembering if I locked the doors.

[tsunami]

yeah seriously i have an 04 and mine works a good 200-300 ft away it blows peoples mind how far away i can use my fob... and mine is old try the other one as it should have come with 2 or change the battery?? do you have something infront of the receiver in on your dash?

You'd be suprised how many people forget where they park!!

[jbiird317]

the key fob to chin thing actually gets mine to lock the doors when im in my house and the car is outside in the detached garage

[CTGrey02]

Try it on your nuts, guaranteed to help your sperm count!

[SwampAss]

My sperm's engine fell out.

Specially those fresh off the boat... Im telling you the dork that decided to call them FOBs was the same one that loved to say FAB back in the 60's... Fukin A' Bob to Fuck Off Bob....I dont carry a pocket watch so dont see how this would be an ornament for a pocket watch...

And mine has pretty good range btw... at least 100 ft...

[Nokkers3]

My remote works pretty well too, even from inside my house. Next time I'm in a big parking lot, I'll try the chin thing.

[flipstylex]

I think you mean like $1.50? (realistically it's more like $2.40~$2.60) I'd get rid of my MS3 in a heartbeat if I had to pay $15 more than a regular 3 per tank. ^_^;;

Yeah, seriously. Need to check the math, there, FrancoNemo. Premium is like $0.20 more per gallon, so even if you were completely dry, it would only be a difference of $2.90 per tank.

Of course... that's not figuring in the decreased fuel economy, but still.
