06 Z4 Keyless Remote

My problem is the remote does not seem to have good range. I have to be maybe about 5 feet from the vehicle in order for it to work. My other vehicles have at least 50 feet range.

I just purchased the vehicle September 06 and it's always been like this. I also the second remote with the same problem.

Does anybody have this issue? And was the resolution? Could it be battery issue?

Thank you.

This seems to be a hit & miss thing.
Some (like me) have a longer range than others.
IDK if there was a production change or not???

I can get 20' on mine with not trouble.

mine is an '07 with a nov production date, maybe there is an issue with the transmittor and key, doesnt bother me though....except when it picks and chooses the occasions that it will unlock the passenger side door....that may need to be looked at...
