Like I said, I just took delivery of the car 2 weeks ago. I know that that has no bearing on how old the batteries in the remote might be but I would hope the batteries are basically new.
As far as the actual context the car was in a packed lot but I was standing directly behind it - about 2 feet away from the centre of the trunk trying to open the trunk, then about 2 feet away from the left rear wheel when trying to open the doors. I was in exactly the same place when it worked 30 seconds later.
I guess it might be batteries but from the comments here I wonder if there's not some more basic flaw. I'll see if it happens again. Good news of course was that it did work eventually. Anybody ever have it happen that the remote failed altogether and they had to open manually?
