Greetings,
I seek wisdom from the Club Hive Mind about this particular problem I'm having with our family 328i sports wagon (2013 model year / F31). This spring the battery on one of the original FOBs died. I replaced it, and a few weeks later had the same problem. I then got a new FOB from the dealer (BMW of Alexandria/Arlington). Now the new FOB is failing after only three months of use. As a point of comparison, I've had my 2012 z4 for 6 years and had to replace the FOB batteries only this year. Is the failure of the battery in the new fob for the wagon a possible indicator of something else being wrong with the car, or am I just having a run of bad luck with key FOBS?
Thanks
