Hi,
I wonder if anyone can help. Strange things are happening to my car. After returning back from work or waking up in the morning to go to work, i find my driver side unlocked and rear window fully opened. I know i have locked the car (Using the remote). Before i take it to the garage and spend tons of money.Any idea what this could be and how i can fix it ?

Thanks;
Paul

have you not had it long ? well before going to dealer i find the buttons on the remote fob a bit sensative and by just bending down with the remote(and keys)in your pockets it opens the rear window and unlocks the car,im telling ya its really easyily done

I agree with smythe I have only had my freelander for 2 days and I have done it once already. :(

The unlock sequence is one press of the fob to open the drivers door. Second press of the fob opens all other doors. Keep pressing unlock button and back window opens. And yes, it has happened to me. If the fob is new then the range is quite considerable.

or not at all if you park under some overhead cables like the ones on our pub car park;) many a landrover bloke looks dismayed
