i can unlock/lock my car from anywhere in my house, i think i tried to walk down the street and got to the end of the next door neighbors house and i still worked(roughly 100 or so feet away, didnt bother going any further) my range used to be bad when i first bought the car like a week ago. I just replaced the batteries in both key remotes and now it works fine. The batteries should be "cr1616" .. you can get them at any radio shack or even some grocery stores like smiths. they range from like 2-5 bucks but they all get the job done, good luck, hope this helps
