I will confirm this myself when they arrive but due to low range of smart key anything over 70 db should be effective according to my source on discosportforum Thumbs Up Wanted a Series 2 LR since childhood but previously owned MY16 Disco Sport HSE TD4 Auto, MY13 RR Sport Black Edition TDV6 Auto, MY10 RR Sport HSE TDV6 Auto, 2007 Freelander 1 Freestyle TD4 Soft Top, 2009 Freelander 2 GS TD4 Auto, 2007 Freelander 2 GS TD4, 2004 Disco 2 Metropolis Auto, 2002 Disco 2 GS, 2000 Freelander 1 SE TD4 SW

I quite agree, I much prefer to have a key, this was a great backward step, where the negatives were never checked or fixed before adding to car. It should be an option, the keyless would soon stop, I find them a complete pain. John

Me too. I've never felt a standard key to present any great hardship! Thumbs Up

Apart from anything, I think a key is simply a nice thing; it's tactile and has become a major part of our culture. Smile Visiting from DISCO3.CO.UK

Muddywheels, I've just received the pouches you were talking about from Amazon. I placed my key inside and tried to open the doors and they wouldn't open. Took the key out and all ok.

It looks as if they work a treat so thanks for the heads up. Thumbs Up Thumbs Up Thumbs Up

Unlike a std fob where you press button to activate signal a keyless fob is constantly emitting a signal and the vehicle is listening for it - this is exploited by the scumbags Sad Wanted a Series 2 LR since childhood but previously owned MY16 Disco Sport HSE TD4 Auto, MY13 RR Sport Black Edition TDV6 Auto, MY10 RR Sport HSE TDV6 Auto, 2007 Freelander 1 Freestyle TD4 Soft Top, 2009 Freelander 2 GS TD4 Auto, 2007 Freelander 2 GS TD4, 2004 Disco 2 Metropolis Auto, 2002 Disco 2 GS, 2000 Freelander 1 SE TD4 SW

Very nicely put, muddywheels. Thumbs Up


The signal is simply amplified and read, so if it is in a drawer inside house, hanging up behind door, or even in your pocket etc, they are in and away.
