This is an update to my post from last week...thanks to everyone who replied then.
The "problem" now seems to go like this...after a "good" (say 20 miles of freeway) drive I shut the car down, here a faint "clicking" and then remote locking does not work. To get things to work again I have to put the key back in the ignition and then the "reset key fob" chimes go off. The SID is blank until I start the engine and the "1/1 12:00 am" appears.
Other presets (radio, ACC) are fine. I've had these go with a weak battery before so I am tending to rule that out (battery is Interstate and 1 month old). The car starts and runs fine.
This happens in about 1 in 3 drives (enough to be concerned). I called my indie and he suggested it was probably a loose connection and to wait for it to get worse (diagnosing electrics can be labor intensive).
Any more thoughts based on the new symptoms (early signs of a TWICE problem, maybe)?
