Yes. The reason is that the receiver in your car is designed to work with the older style KEY TURD, and the receiver antenna would have to be upgraded to the newer style to get the range back. I have the new key on my 99 9-5, and on the drivers side, sometimes you might as well just stick the key in the door to open it you are that close! I have not looked into changing the antenna, but understand it is in the rear area of the cneter console, and is not that easy to get at.Suggest you check with your dealer on this.
Overall,I still like this key better.Should check fuel mileage now that I am not carrying all that weight around!
